Re: [a11y-metadata-project] Re: accessibility RDFS write-up

I agree with Madeleine. This alteration makes it difficult to 
understand/parse when an access mode has been inferred, or when it reflects 
the actual nature of the content. For optimized discovery and rendition 
selection from metadata in the epub package document, we were looking for 
the unambiguous representation of the nature of the content that accessMode 
was designed to give.

It also directly changes an IMS property without changing its name, which is 
worrisome. Where we have changed properties previously (accessFeature 
combining properties), we've used different names to avoid confusion.

The whole +'ing of access modes is also lacking any explanation in the given 
definition, which doesn't seem helpful for someone trying to implement the 
property.

I think (and I believe others agree) that this is a new field, computed from 
accessMode plus accessFeatures. The previous definition of accessMode should 
remain in place, and the new field you have suggested needs a more specific 
name.
