my suggestion of aiming it at cross-site consistency with a core-set of
terms is used, that is something different.


Yes, I agree, I should probably be more clear. I'm speaking about the
proposal from yesterday to strip the COGA semantics out of AA. This I think
is too general, doesn't accomplish much and is largely covered by 3.2.4,
and 3.3.2. "In content implemented using markup languages, the purpose of
conventional controls[1] can be consistently, programmatically determined
across a set of web pages."

I think
​at AA we need to look at​
 a cut back version of COGA (along with some HTML5 and ARIA attribute
​ values​
).
​ I think we are riffing in the same key.​


Cheers,
David MacDonald
