Another change I recommend for the 'Using ARIA in HTML' document [1] is
that, when the equivalent ARIA _role_ does not exist, then instead of
just saying "none", instead say "no role". Justification: "No role" is
what HTML5 says.[2]
With such a change, the particular table example I made, would look
like this:
Native HTML f|Equiv ARIA f|Rely on native HTML f?|Alt. non-equiv ARIA f.
-------------|------------|----------------------|----------------------
table | no role | YES | # roles: any,HOWEVER:
| | | ## only grid recc'ed
| | | ## presentation unrec
| | | # aria-*: global
PS: The doc has <h1>Using ARIA in HTML</h1>. Simultaneously it also has
<title>Using ARIA in HTML5</title>. They should say the same, no?
