RE: Linear reading order

Jason proposes a level 2 success criterion for Guideline 1.3 that would
cover the problem of reading order without addressing it directly:


<blockquote>
Structure can be derived programmatically without analysing the layout
or presentation of the content. (this would be in guideline 1.3 level
2).
</blockquote>
He goes on to say:
<blockquote>
Note that my proposal is about separation of structure from
presentation, not about reading order as such. I don't think reading
order needs to be discussed separately except perhaps in an example, but
not in the success criteria.
</blockquote>

My response:
I think this is a good proposal. Besides providing an example, we might
also address the reading-order issue explicitly in General Techniques.
