Getting mild normative changes in before 2.2 is finalised

Hey all,

as the CFC of 2.2 is now out, can we please also try to make some 
decision on long-standing pull requests that make slight tweaks to 
normative aspects/definitions? These have been parked because they're 
less immediately actionable than PRs concerning techniques or 
non-normative understanding aspects...but if they're left much longer, 
we'll be back to the same situation of not being able to make updates 
until a future errata version for 2.2 ...

Purely looking over my 44 PRs (some 3+ years old) 
https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pulls/patrickhlauke that are sitting on the 
pile of 171 open PRs, here's four that I think veer into normative changes:

* Change touch target to just target https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/1485

* Expand/clarify "single pointer" definition 
https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/809

* Alternative rewording of the normative text for 1.4.2 Audio control 
https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/1825

* Consistency: "Resize text" > "Resize Text" 
https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/1941 (this one is arguably just 
editorial, as it purely changes the case of the word "text")

I really don't want these to end up once again on the "we can't change 
it anymore now..."
