Hello,
While the "Distinguishable sectionsEXPLORATORY
Sections are visually and programmatically distinguishable" outcome is
certainly relevant, as a screen reader user and accessibility tester, I also
believe there needs to be a requirement for clearly labeled semantic
landmarks which separate and contain distinct page content. Examples
include Header, Main Navigation, Breadcrumb Navigation, Main content, Aside,
Footer, etc.
Landmarks are well supported in most browsers, are easy to implement using
modern programming languages such as HTML 5, ARIA, and Javascript, provide
great benefits to assistive technology users, and are easy to test for.
Thanks,
Tristen Breitenfeldt
