2 new values for @distraction?

Hi all,

I just responded to a thread over on ARIA Github Issues, found here:
https://github.com/w3c/aria/issues/1427#issuecomment-801253625

In it, I am supporting the suggestion for the need of a 'qualifier' for
different types of images that are often tagged as 'null'. I suggest that
introducing 2 new role values in ARIA might be a way forward, however it
also occurs to me that we might consider adding those "role values" as
distraction values in our personalization spec:

@distraction="*connotativeImage"* and  @distraction="*denotative image*"

Thoughts? (We're *STILL* in an editing phase with our spec, right?)
