Re: Tweak 2.5.3

We've taken all the comments and revised the language of the Success
Criteria 2.5.3
=====

2.5.3 Up-Event Activation: Single touch and/or pointer activation triggers
on the up-event, or has at least one of the following characteristics
(Level A):
- provides confirmation,
- is reversible,
- a mechanism is available to trigger on the up-event.

Note: This is when platform assistive technology that remaps touch gestures
is not turned on.

Also have revised the understanding document and provided some alternative
language for the SC.
