Re: Analysis of Applicability in UAAG 1.0

Ian,

One option to make applicability clearer would be to add an applicability 
clause to checkpoints in section 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4.  For example:

[CURRENT]
Checkpoint 4.1 Allow the user to configure and control the reference size 
of text with an option to override author-specified user agent default text 
size. Make available the range of system font sizes.
[/CURRENT]

[NEW]
Checkpoint 4.1 If user agent supports graphical rendering of content, allow 
the user to configure and control the reference size of text with an option 
to override author-specified user agent default text size. Make available 
the range of system font sizes.
[/NEW]

The main disadvantage of this is increasing the length of the checkpoint.

I think we had considered this option a long time ago with these types of 
checkpoints, what do you think about this approach now?
