The mapping to a technology should be at the technique level, rather than in the “technology agnostic” guidelines doc. So the logic is: - WCAG provides a list of purposes for inputs (and hopefully later links & buttons); - If you are using HTML, here is an HTML technique for applying those purposes to inputs, which maps to HTML autofil. Ideally we’d refer to a specific spec for all of it, in a similar way to 4.1.2 being primarily defined by ARIA. There is such a spec, but it is very wide-ranging and some aspects are further ahead than others. Over the history of this SC it has been whittled down to practically nothing, with the HTML autofill being a very small toe in the door to get something in. However, I think the principle of how it works should continue to work if it is expanding in future. Cheers, -AlastairReceived on Tuesday, 16 January 2018 12:27:52 UTC
