Thanks Andy for the reference, So we have to find a way to indicate that the content has some element that flashes but not to the point of being able to generate a seizure. Is that they are two different use cases. One for people with photosensitive epilepsy and one for people with attention deficit and other cognitive deficits. Or maybe certain circumstances due to the device or to the context of use that can make the person, even without any deficiency, prefer content that does not blink.

The definition we gave the term flashing in AfA 3.0 was "A resource whose visual pattern flashes more than three times in any one second; this level of flashing can cause seizures in some users (WCAG2 Guideline 2.3.2): http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#seizure]. " It isn't sufficient that there is just a term in a vocabulary - it needs precise definition somewhere also. I'm not sure what the plans in this project are for definitions like this but I would guess its somewhere in the development pipeline.
