Hi all,
I think there is a changed audience for this item. As far as I know
screenreaders don't choke on it any more. But it's hard for people with low
vision to spot the gaps.
I suspect this would end up lower priority than before, and it may be that we
say it is about people putting styling over the top (if you could expect
:link:before, :link:after { content: "**" }
to work in a user style sheet then it would be an obvious thing to pass to
the user agent group with the technique as a way of doing it.
cheers
