Proposed change to: A.3.2

A.3.2 Maintain consistency within the authoring tool user interface. 
[Priority ?]

Rationale: Authors who may become disoriented easily will have less 
difficulty when consistent and predictable responses to author actions 
are provided. In general, consistent interfaces will benefit all authors 
to some degree.

Techniques: ???

Success Criteria:

1. Identical user interface elements (e.g. a specific menu item or named 
button) in the authoring tool user interface must perform the same function.
2. When the same function (e.g. saving, running a checker or canceling 
an action) is available in multiple areas of an *authoring tool user 
interface elements*, at least one method of controlling the function 
must be implemented for each area using identical user interface elements.
