RE: [#832] Clear link text - priority and acceptability of supplemental text

Perhaps we need success criteria at both Levels 1 and 2 to handle this
issue.
 
At Level 1 we could say something like:
<proposed #1>
The destination of each link is available to user agents, including
assistive technologies.
</proposed #1>
 
This would allow use of attributes such as title to supplement
link-identifiers in the default presentaiton.
 
Then we could make a Level 2 requirement for clear link text in the
default presentation:
<proposed>
The destination of each link is clearly identified in the default
presentation.
</proposed>
