David,
I think there is a bit of confusion. We were talking about "text area" (2
words) navigation conventions - character movements (left and right arrow),
word movement (control left and right arrow).
There were a few lines in the minutes [1] where "text area" became TEXTAREA.
Nobody caught it. We were not talking about form controls, only incremental
text navigation within web content. Sorry for the confusion.
