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:

Status: Rejected
Change Description: No spec change.
Rationale: Fortunately, we already have such machine-detectable
mechanisms. If an author refers to hidden="" content from <img usemap>,
aria-describedby="", etc., then they have established that that
hidden="" content is the second type of hidden content in your list.
Otherwise, tools should presume it is of the first type.
