My one concern is:
The term "available to select" is not prescriptive. The term allows authors to develop techniques where auto-population is not possible. It can include allowing the user to:
* select text from the page and copy it into an input;
I’m concerned that this can be interpreted as letting the user scroll down, away from the task at hand, to copy information, then find their way back to where they need to input it. Or maybe they even have to navigate backwards across multiple screens. Either way it exacerbates the issue.
If the text to copy is within view of the input, that would be ok though.
Other than this example I’m good with the rest of it.

Kind regards,
