https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=21565 longdesc on
presentational images
propose to resolve invalid, as it isn't an issue on longdesc but on ARIA
and maybe WCAG techniques
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=21781 affect of base /
xml:base
Leaning to adding a statement reminding developers that this needs to be
taken into account, but waiting on further info
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=21778 user agents MUST
present longdesc.
propose to make the requirement apply to valid longdesc values only,
leaving the invalid case unspecified for now as there are different
strategies that can be applied for different kinds of invalid content and
I don't think we yet have enough experience to insist on conformance
requirements for the error cases.
This bug depends on https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=21564
allow user agents to decide what to do with invalid longdesc, and blocks
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=21778 define behaviour for
empty values, both of which would also be resolved by this approach, as
fixed and wontfix respectively.
cheers
