Requesting some issue guidance on ARIA

I was aiming to clean up our ARIA namespace issue with all of the
discussion from the last two weeks when I realized there really isn't
one.

The oldest one (ISSUE-14) is quite specific to ARIA & @role:
* Integration of WAI-ARIA roles into HTML5:
http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/14

There is a newer one (ISSUE-35) that is ask a higher level question
about duplication of functionality issues (that in theory covers
ISSUE-14) too:
* Need to define processing requirements for aria states and
properties when used in html -
http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/35

Do we need a separate issue for "ARIA namespace" to facilitate
tracking actions, resources, and discussions? At the moment TAG is
pushing in one direction but it doesn't appear that the working group,
and in particular, implementors, are unified behind the TAG proposal.
Is this a spot where an issue would help keep things in order for the
chairs in terms of agenda building?
