Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] TAG Review of HTML 5.2 (previously 5.1) (#119)

Can you please explain the "defn" issue? 

I will raise it on the spec when I am clear that I understand what it is, but right now, I do not.

My guess is that you mean we should expand the model of `dfn` from phrasing content to flow content, allowing it to include headings, lists, etc.

But since the element is used to identify the term being defined - i.e. just the words which are being defined - I find it hard to imagine a case where the words will run across elements other than phrasing content: links, `em`/`s`/`var`/etc, and even things like `audio`. 

I'm inclined to suggest that the proposed change, if I have understood it, be rejected…

How fallback content included in elements like `audio` works in the context of phrasing content *may* be poorly defined, although I haven't looked at that carefully myself.
