Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Handwriting Recognition API (#591)

During our May 2021 vf2f, @cynthia and myself did another pass at this review, thank you for all of the answers. 

Regarding adding a direction hint to the recognizer - we found that to be a useful futureproofing feature and recommend that you do.

After going over the privacy & security questionnaire I am still not clear if the API exposes additional fingerprinting capabilities. With exposure of strokes, ordering of strokes and timing of strokes, I worry that models can be trained to easily recognize patterns for various disabilities. This will be a very unfortunate byproduct of this API. Is this something that you considered and could expand on?
