I just read through http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ig/1997JulSep/0031.html In general, I like the proposal and I think it just needs some more detailed wording on the way axis/axes determine the hierarchy. I have one concern: > You know how you can nest lists with most windowing systems?

The way I understand it, SELECT are implemented as list boxes when multiple-selection is used and as drop-down menu for single-selection. I know that nested option menu is supported on most if not all systems, but in order to support nested multiple list, one would have to move from a single list boxes to a more powerful "outliner" widget (like the one used on most systems to _manage_ the bookmark list in a separate static window). My concern is that there's going to be push-back from the implementors because this requires non-trivial changes to their browser at a late stage.
