However SC 1.3.3 still needs help <quote cite="http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/WD-WCAG20-20070517/Overview.html#content-structure-separation-understanding"> 1.3.3 Size, Shape, Location: Instructions provided for understanding and operating content do not rely on shape, size, visual location, or orientation of components. (Level A) </quote> Problem: This just tells you some visual characteristics that your instructions should not be dependent on. It leaves open situations that are just as bad that depend on the sound of the element. Or its motion. Or its smell. Make the injunction positive: "Instructions shall include the text identification of components that they tell users how to use." Provide a definition of "text identification" in the glossary. This is in line with the clarification of 1.1.1. and 2.4.6 that needs to be done. Al
