It goes well beyond 85 and 109. It does so, because substantial change is needed in the existing section text--indeed it was easiest to look at replacing the entire section. So, perhaps Issue-14 is more appropriate, as Steve suggests: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Jun/0202.html Perhaps 85 and 109 are now OBE? Anyway, let's discuss this Thursday. The TF hasn't even taken this proposal up yet itself. This is a report and recommendation from the ARIA Mappings Subteam we set up in April. It's probably a couple weeks away from a TF recommendation to the WG.
