Yes, why would it not be? There are lots of ways something might be hidden.

That restriction wouldn't even make sense as far as I can tell.

Why would it not be?


EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment. If you are
satisfied with this response, please change the state of this bug to CLOSED. If
you have additional information and would like the editor to reconsider, please
reopen this bug. If you would like to escalate the issue to the full HTML
Working Group, please add the TrackerRequest keyword to this bug, and suggest
title and text for the tracker issue; or you may create a tracker issue
yourself, if you are able to do so. For more details, see this document:
   http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html

Status: Rejected
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale:

I don't really understand what I'm supposed to clarify here. We're not going to
add to the HTML spec long paragraphs listing all the things that you are
allowed to do with ARIA, that's ARIA's job.

 Wish to escalate as not not providing clear information to authors on how
aria-* attributes should be used in conjunction with related HTML5 attributes
is not helpful to authors.
