The mainstream parsing rules would not change it would be in the acc layer. I have had brief discussions with the mozilla acc engineers on a similar issue, there was not a groundswell of enthusiasm for implementing. But I think we are being premature in talking about implementation changes, without solid use cases and evidence of current markup patterns in support of the change. for example I don't see how your suggested changes will benefit users who consume the semantics, what will the semantics of nested main be when mapped to the acc layer? regards SteveF On 1 February 2013 10:41, Jeremy Keith <jeremy@adactio.com> wrote: > Steve wrote: > > support for the role mapping is already in all current implementations > as per the W3C spec as I wrote the patch for webkit and included the acc > implementation.
