Hello everyone. Seems to me part of the intent here is based on the assumption that a clear indication of the focus benefits only keyboard users. To me, that doesn't seem a correct assumption. Reading the "Understanding SC 2.4.7 (Focus Visible)" it's pretty clear the intent of that guideline is to make focus always visible for _all_ users. Also for mouse users. Quoting: > Specific Benefits of Success Criterion 2.4.7: > This Success Criterion helps anyone who relies on the keyboard to operate the page, by letting them visually determine the component on which keyboard operations will interact at any point in time. > People with attention limitations, short term memory limitations, or limitations in executive processes benefit by being able to discover where the focus is located. They're just two examples. The second one is not related to the device in use. -- GitHub Notification of comment by afercia Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/pull/709#issuecomment-305493173 using your GitHub account
