For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Rejected Change Description: no spec change Rationale: For <figcaption> and <caption>: ARIA doesn't have a clear role that fits here, so having a default seems bad — it would be better to let the UA map things to the accessibility APIs directly, following platform conventions. On the other hand, there are lots of roles that might fit in various circumstances, so we don't want to disallow roles. Hence the situation in the spec now. I would rather leave magic like defaulting roles based on other roles to the ARIA spec editors. It doesn't seem like something that would be HTML-specific. If ARIA could be simplified, the place to do that is the ARIA spec, not the HTML spec. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
