Agenda+ Use Cases - Low Vision
use http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/media-a11y-reqs/ as a structure

something to think about from Phil Jenkins
Designers designing pages that respond well to the desktop viewport, the
tablet viewport, and the phone viewport, commonly called "breakpoints" in
the design world.  And, I beieve all these are done with fixed size
containers, but not always.  My point is that it is not the case that fixed
point necessarily supports or prevents the responsive reflow.  It is that
the browser changes (or forces) the fixed width so that the pages design
responds and reflows.  As I mentioned earlier, if a user were to tell the
browser to behave as if it were a phone, then the content 'reflows" to a
singluar  column, grids (data tables) become cards, etc. such that the user
expereince works well for a narrow viewport.  If the browser were to allow
the user to also (in addition to)  increase the fonts and zoom at the same
time on the desktop, but tricking the page to think it was still in phone
mode, then a very large single column view would work with just the
browser.  That is the requirement I would like to add to UAAG.  And I
believe that is the behavior many end users with low vision want to
expereince.
