7-day CfC: notes on option, treeitem, and spinbutton about children presentational - closes 15 June

This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to the Accessible Rich Internet 
Applications (ARIA) Working Group regarding the following resolution of 
the ARIA Working group:

    Add editorial note to option, treeitem, and spinbutton roles that
    their "children are presentational" status is provisional


    Background

This was approved by the participants of the 9 June 2016 teleconference, 
and further context is available in the minutes:

    https://www.w3.org/2016/06/09-aria-minutes.html#item02

Note this resolution does not close discussion on the issue of whether 
these roles ultimately should have the children presentational 
restriction, or whether further engineering is needed, and if so in what 
time frame. This edit supports wider review of the topic.


    Action

This CfC is now open for objection, comment, as well as statements of 
support via email. Silence will be interpreted as support, though 
messages of support are certainly welcome.

If you object to this proposal, or have comments concerning it, please 
respond by replying on list to this message no later than 23:59 
(midnight) Boston Time, Wednesday, 15 June 2016. For objections only, 
please copy the main aria@w3.org list to allow technical discussion of 
the objection to happen there.


    Process

This CfC is conducted per the ARIA WG decision policy:

    https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/decision-policy

I am issuing this CfC as acting chair, but Rich will record the formal 
ratification if passed.
