Dear LVTF,

What is declared as accessibility support by WCAG WG is not normative.
So, that can be changed.

Why don't we propose that enlargement that requires word wrapping is
not accessibility support.

Without that kind of push, the big screen magnification systems will
never do their part to fix is. I know some systems are moving in that
direction this might push them to stretch a little.
