Sounds good. - How about doc-pageheader and doc-pagefooter? - Possible definition: repeated section of text that appears at the top/bottom of pages in a document, potentially containing a title, page number or other information - Should the page number get its own role, e.g. doc-pagenum? Should it exist within the doc-pageheader/doc-page-footer? - Should the new roles inherit from contentinfo?
