Alas, <label> turned out to have its own problems with <details>. It's lack of keyboard focus (pointed out by Gez Lemon) means it can't be used for an interactive element. That doesn't apply to <figure> though, which is one of the reasons why I wanted to keep discussions of <details> and <figure> separate. -- Jeremy Keith a d a c t i o http://adactio.com/
