RE: CfC: return HTML 5.0 to Last Call

I would like to make a note about section "3.2.7.4 Implicit ARIA Semantics"

The following is stated for the A tag:

"If specified, role must be one of the following: link, button, checkbox,
menuitem, menuitemcheckbox,menuitemradio, tab, or treeitem"

The following are missing however, radio and option.

Similarly, the following is stated for the LI element:

"If specified, role must be one of the following: listitem, menuitem,
menuitemcheckbox, menuitemradio, option, tab, treeitem or presentation"

Radio is missing.

Regarding the OL and UL elements:

"If specified, role must be one of the following: directory, list, listbox,
menu, menubar, tablist, toolbar, tree or presentation"

Radiogroup is missing.

All the best,
Bryan

Dear Chairs, WG:

Please understand that this is NOT an objection to returning HTML 5.0 to LC.
While the PFWG has not considered a position on this question, all
indications are that we would support this CfC.

However, we do believe there is one section of the candidate LC document
whose RFC2119 status may need to be changed. Therefore, we are requesting
that the following section be marked "At Risk" for the LC:

http://htmlwg.org/heartbeat/WD-html5-20140617/dom.html#sec-strong-native-sem
antics

PF notes that the normative requirements on user agents in this section are
not tested and believes that they cannot be appropriately implemented from
the specification alone. The development of the "HTML Accessibility API
Mappings" specification will eventually provide the relevant implementation
guidance, but this document is far from ready at this time.

Discussion of this issue in PF can be found beginning at:

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pfwg/2014Jun/0067.html

I expect the PFWG will file a bug against the HTML 5.0 specification in this
regard during the coming week.
