A.3.2.1
Does this cover the case where an author makes a change (maybe forgets about the
change made), and the authoring tool closes the session but "remembers" the edit later
(maybe when the author exits the authoring tool)?  Is such a scenario possible with
at least some authoring tools (if not then your response is fine..)

A.3.2.2
Is there a reason to break the consistency with WCAG2 for testability (maybe make "tighter"
or less arbitrary?)..  if keeping consistency is more important then I understand..

A.3.2.3
"pointer input - input from mouse or other pointer" - circular definition?  - what specifically
can or can not be classified as a "pointer"?
"moving around" relative to "what" reference (for example, screen, enclosing window, what)?  Is
this only for visual media or for other kinds (audio, tactile, etc.)?
