Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-flexbox][css-grid] Providing authors with a method of opting into following the visual order, rather than logical order (#7387)

While I believe to be a great solution, I think the problem with assistive technologies is how you get them to read the layout that is different from the source order though.  

We all know that assistive technologies do NOT read the page but the source order as stated in your proposal so for assistive technologies to figure out a way to read the actual page order/layout I believe is going to be a tough ask.

I'm more inclined to have order be taken out totally from the equation honestly. While I do see benefits from using order (both grid and flexbox) I am in the camp where I believe causes more harm than good for assistive technologies thus authors should be implementing their source code semantically and in order of work flow.
