The alias, public-pfwg-comments@w3.org, is for formal comments on the ARIA working drafts. Whether or not the suggestion will be implemented, Jim was right to send his comment to that address. Next time, please don't cross-post, and feel free to remove the pfwg- comments alias from any future replies or forwards to this thread. Thanks.
