SC4.3 issues and proposed rewording

I have concerns with testability of "helps".  How about "assists the 
author", with definition of "assists" so that it can be objectively 
determined which features assist the author as opposed to which do not 
assist the author?

Also I have concerns with testability of "relevant"?  Can it be objectively 
determined what is "relevant" as opposed to what is not?   Can "relevant" 
be defined further or at least give some specific examples of what might be 
relevant as opposed to what would not be relevant?  Same thing for "related"?

I also would prefer "include" rather than "integrate" because typically 
integration involves some combination of two things and you're integrating 
into what?

Proposed rewording:

"Any --authoring tool (def)-- feature (e.g., object ins..etc.) that assists 
(def?) in sequencing authoring actions (def?) must --always-- include 
(relevant-def?) accessibility(def?) prompts(def?) in the feature.  Each 
such accessibility prompt must (instead of "should") occur before or at the 
time that the author is required to perform the --authoring action(s)-- 
related(?) to that accessibility prompt."

Thanks and best wishes,
