Re: @title's relation to accessibility

What can the html wg do to make browsing on bad browsers better?  If it is 
in the scope of work, I'd like to see this discussed and propposed.  Is 
there a way to help authors with this type of transform?  Can code prevent 
uas from doing bad things?

Then that company is the problem. Not the UA, not the HTML spec, not web
publishers.

Anyway, let's try to not get into an off topic debate about whether people
should then change jobs, etc. The point I'm tryingto make is whether such
problems are within the scope of this group. Should the HTML WG consider 
that
some employers require their employees to use broken tools, and if so, what
can the HTML WG do about that?
