Not necessarily. That's up to the user agent / accessibility tool implementors. I'm saying that the interface that user agents / accessibility tools should offer is specifically one that skips sequences of uninteresting content, so that you only have to instruct the software to skip uninteresting content once to get to the interesting content. Note that this kind of solution is necessary in any case when interesting content _contains_ sequences of uninteresting content. > This is a poor user experience compared with performing a single 'skip' > action to get to the main content. I agree, but this is orthogonal to how the content is marked up. You don't need role="" or <main> to achieve this. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
