HTML-ISSUE-186: conformance error for use of role=presentation on interactive elements [pre-LC1 HTML 5 spec] http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/186 Raised by: Steve Faulkner On product: pre-LC1 HTML 5 spec rasied from Bug 10919 - Allow role="presentation" to override the default role of any element which was resolved wontfix http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10919 while there are legityimate use cases for allowing role=presenation on some elements, there are not legitimate use cases for allowing role=presentation on all elements. In fact no reasons have been put forward for allowing role=presentation on form controls and other interactive elemnents and allowing them on form controls is actively harmful. so unless use cases are provided I request that role=presentation be non conforming on the following elements: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-input-element.html#the-input-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-button-element.html#the-button-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-button-element.html#the-select-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-button-element.html#the-datalist-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-button-element.html#the-option-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-button-element.html#the-textarea-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-button-element.html#the-keygen-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-button-element.html#the-progress-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-button-element.html#the-meter-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/interactive-elements.html#the-summary-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/interactive-elements.html#the-command-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/interactive-elements.html#the-menu-element http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/text-level-semantics.html#the-a-element
