Simply put, while the Web browser on a desktop/laptop style computer is the most common way people access HTML, the varieties of UAs are limitless. To dictate rendering in HTML is not a good idea. Tooltips, for example, make little sense in Lynx, or on a mobile device that uses a stylus. Wondering if UAAG would be the more appropriate place to regulate how UAs should behave in these cases.
