Re: Tomorrows A11Y DPUB Meeting

Comments on the table:

longdesc:mitigation::  Could be extended to cover more elements beyond
<img> (eg. "All block-level elements.")

aria-describedby:cons::  No standard way to hide visually but expose on
demand or to AT. (Can hide but expose to screen-readers, can expose, or can
right custom JS tools.)

hidden iFrame; figure with iframe:cons::  iFrames can require implementer
effort to make accessible.

All three figure + details options:cons::  Doesn't inherently clarify that
this figcaption is the accessibility description as oopposed to a general
captopn.

All three figure + details options; hidden iframe:cons::  "special support"
and "depend on script-support long term" are unclear: all three of these
should just say, "will require scripting to hide visually but expose on
demand or to AT."

All three figure + details options:mitigation::  Add a role attribute which
AT, extensions, or user agent settings could recognize to expose as
appropriate.

All three figure + details options:mitigation::  Add the "Add role
attribute to clarify overloading" to all of them.

All three figure + details options:mitigation::  Add a role attribute which
AT, extensions, or user agent settings could recognize to expose as
appropriate.

SVG wrapping bitmap:cons:: Using SVG as a wrapper for non-graphics
overloads a graphical format as a descriptor container.
