RE: R23. Speech as an input on any application should be able to be optional

Hello Deborah,

OK, if the speech is optional for that "type=speech" element,
then text (or other modality?) is assumed here ?
Or the element won't get any input other than speech ?

What we actually need is an element accepting mulitimodal
input, assuming both text and speech agents up and running
for that element simultanesously. Wonder if this use case
had been discussed before - my apology if it's been,
as I started following your standard efforts quite lately.

Regards,

Chan Lee
