But, the question is has anyone come across a similar issue on any of the mobile platforms you are able to test on? This is a general accessibility / AT issue, not specifically about mobile though, right? As in: it would not make sense for the "mobile" extension to specifically call this out as a problem (and relating techniques), as it's not exclusive to this scenario? P -- Patrick H.
