This is an SVG deficiency but NOT a canvas deficiency. Although important, the bounds of an object are only a piece of all the things to support interoperability. You need roles, relationships, state change notifications, and so on. We have those in canvas now. We do not in SVG. What roles, relationships, state change notifications are available in HTML content that uses canvas that are not available in HTML content that use SVG? > Let's stick to the problem at hand. ... canvas. Eventually we will get to SVG but not today. Canvas is part of HTML and it needs to be fixed. SVG is just as much a part of HTML as the canvas context, so I'm confused by the implication that it's okay for us to fix any accessibility problems with using canvas with HTML before we fix any accessibility problems with using SVG with HTML. -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis
