[Bug 11540] The willful violation clause is most unwise. A standard should not violate another standard for any reason. This wouls lead to 2 things : 1) Content correctly encoded content would never be displayed correctly. 2) All future standards would need to includ from bugzilla@jessica.w3.org on 2011-01-11 (public-html-a11y@w3.org from January 2011)

The bug-triage sub-team doesn't believe this should be W3C Accessibility Task
Force priority. Since the two violated standards contradict each other, it's
reasonable to fix this in HTML5. We don't see much of an accessibility issue
here, and the bug is certainly not about willfully violating WCAG or other W3C
standards that should harmonize and be non-redundant.
