Re: ACTION-2081: Draft wording for editorial note on password that it needs review and could be removed later (Accessible Rich Internet Applications Working Group)

Draft ednote for password role on issues and could remove later:

https://rawgit.com/w3c/aria/ACTION-2081/aria/aria.html#password

    Editor's Note

    The Working Group is still considering implications of the
    |password|
    <https://rawgit.com/w3c/aria/ACTION-2081/aria/aria.html#password> role:

      * It might create security or privacy risks that custom password
        fields without the role would not;
      * The use of such fields might not be widespread enough to justify
        the risks;
      * Mitigating risks might require specific assisitve technology
        support that is not normally specified in ARIA.

    The role has been included in this Working Draft to solicit wide
    review on these questions. The ARIA Working Group particularly seeks
    input from *security* and *privacy* experts, *assistive technology*
    developers, and *authors* who potentially would use the role.

    If input suggests excessive risks or insufficient need, the role may
    be removed from the next publication of this specification.
