[last call, S2] priorities

The definition and use of priorities in this document is not consistent with
their use in WCAG 1.0.

For example, checkpoint 7.3 does not meet WCAG standards for Priority 1,
but is
rather in WCAG terms a Priority 2 (document effectively useless, not
completely
unusable).

This is a thorny issue, as it is not clear that the priorities and conformance
scheme in WCAG 1.0 is the best possible approach in this area.  But doing
something that looks the same but isn't the same has problems of its own.  

This issue might benefit from some coordination outside the Working Group.
