I have no idea what this means.

> Unless a focus event is recognized by AT,

Do you mean a 'focus' event, a focus request by the user, a change of focus, a
call to element.focus(), a call to window.focus(), or something else?


> at the co-ordinates of the focus rectangle drawn on the canvas,

Do you mean a focus rectangle drawn by drawFocusRing(), a focus rectangle drawn
by script, or a focus rectangle drawn by a UA rendering a focus rectangle
around an actual control?


> then AT will not be able to move focus to the rectangle

By "move focus" do you mean the magnification focus? The OS focus? The UA
focus? The JS/DOM/CSS focus? Some other focus?


> as it effectively has no meaning other than a being a shape on the canvas.
> I understand that a focus event can be flagged by the use of standard
> APIs.

Do you mean OS APIs? AT APIs? ARIA? The canvas 2D APIs?


> Does the the spec currently require/recommend that such an event flag
> occurs when the focus rectangle is drawn? If not why not? 

I have no idea what this question means.
