steve faulkner:
> The HTML5.0 CR spec is meant to reflect interoperable implementations

Ahh ok, but if outlining is dropped, then sectioning elements must also be
dropped as they're part of that feature.

> we have already had to mitigate such evangelism in regards to use of <section> as a replacement for <div> by changing advice in the HTML spec :-)

Then that was incorrect evangelism. It's certainly not what I teach or follow.
These kinds of errors will also happen. It happened with tables, it still
happens with dl & forms etc etc.

> the hunch that the implementation of the outline algo in the acc layer only will be a win for users also needs to be backed up by evidence.

Comment 15 shows this, right? Not all ATs will benefit, but some will. And if
ATs are struggling with the algorithm, they'll be able to avoid creating a
buggy implementation and use the acc layer instead.

Also, it paves the way to the dom methods you propose.
