Re: ISSUE-204: aria-hidden - Chairs Solicit Proposals (was: Chair review of "Keep Longdesc Deprecated")

Would you add something along the lines of @hidden elements are not interactive/references to elements which have the @hidden attribute should not be treated as interactive elements beyond flowto semantics.

I'm not sure about your CP, but it seems quite a bit closer to reasonable and existing behavior. Not really sure about your solution.
