dear chairs,
I request that the following change be reverted:
http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=6144&to=6145
It substantially changes the content model of the canvas element, it is
claimed that the change is to
"Further discourage misuse of <canvas> that cannot be made accessible or
usable."
The change does no such thing, it does not stop any author creating
inaccessible canvas content, it only discourages authors from attempting to
provide accessible alternatives within the canvas sub-dom to inaccessible
user interface elements they may create using canvas.
