low contrast borders OK

Hi Low Vision Task Force folks,

We are redesigning the WAI website. We plan to announce the prototype soon (but not yet, so please wait to share info :-).

The current design iteration has low contrast underlines under h2s and around some boxes -- that are mostly in-page contents and "asides" -- with headers. These should be subtle, and thus we do not want them to have high contrast. Contrast is not necessary, given the headers/headings (and indentation).

For example, please see <https://w3c.github.io/wai-intro-accessibility/fundamentals/accessibility-intro/>

I just wanted to run this by the Task Force before we announced it, to get confirmation that this is good accessibility and usability considering all users.

Thanks,
~Shawn
