There is an assumption here I've noticed from a couple of people: > Nobody would expect authors to support such a mechanism, but accessibility testers should start preparing. The assumption has to be that *authors* can apply the success criteria. By authors, I mean designers, developers, content people. Not just accessibility experts and testers. Testing is important, but authors have to be able to apply the guidelines in their "business as usual" work, otherwise the process simply doesn't scale up enough. That really is the point of accessibility guidelines - to distill expertise into easy applied nuggets that anyone can apply... and yes there is always room for improvement there, but we need to hold onto that premise!
