Subject: Re: a suggestion for Personalization Semantics

I would say that 1.3.1 already requires landmark regions in HTML documents that have visually distinct parts of a page, but I understand that others on the group would not hold that position.

My reasoning is that the main region is represented visually and therefore should be programmatically identified. It is also accessibility supported and is reasonable to expect.

Maybe I'm missing something but it appears to me what Martin is saying is that TextHelp could leverage the <main> element or role="main" or perhaps <article> element. I don't see anything in this email that indicates a need for additional attributes...

Subject : a suggestion for Personalization Semantics
============ Forwarded message ============
Hi Shadi, Lisa,

It was great to get a chance to discuss the proposal for Personalization Semantics  in some detail today.
It may be an improvement to include "Main Content" as a UI element.

Use case:
Imagine someone is in a Kindle Reader type application.
The entire UI is composed of

  1.  Next Page
  2.  Previous Page
  3.  Menu (to go to library etc)
  4.  Main Content
As a preference I may like my Main Content to have a certain font, spacing etc. and may want to suppress the other UI.
If this was to be implemented as a WGAG 2 success criteria Texthelp would implement support for the feature in Read & Write for Google (12 million users)

I am happy to hop on a skype call to discuss this for clarity if it helps.

If you can indicate the likelihood of my proposed improvement, I can add it as a project backlog item and move towards implementation.

Best Wishes,
Martin
