Counter proposal :-)
Allow markup on a region to define it as a roll-up region (or a crawl). Define semanics that describe how content that is released into these regions should act over time and during conditions of 'region full'.
It's not the content that has a roll character - it's the region...
Agree about empty p elements...

Subject: Roll up in DFXP
From an interested party.
Rollup Captions
To properly represent 608/708 closed captions, it is important that DFXP TimedText provide some basic support for roll-up style captions. [company] has yet to formalize plans in this area, but is proposing the following basic structure:
* Allow for a <body>, <div>, or individual <p> element to be tagged as rollup, with an attribute indicating the number of lines of rollup text (typically 2 or 3 lines).
* Leverage the proposed upperThird/middleThird/lowerThird region tag to allow for the rollup caption area to be positioned appropriately on the screen. Software that converts 608/708 captions to TimedText can inspect the line positioning and infer the appropriate screen region.
* Interpret empty <p> tags as a command to clear the roll-up display. Software that converts 608/708 captions to TimedText would generate an empty <p> tag whenver encountering {EDM} erase commands.
Thanks,
AWK
