8.9 - the selectOne form control

Chapter 8.9 shows the checkbox as one appropriate way to represent the 
selectOne form control.

As I recall, this was discussed on list in relation to the August WD and the 
decision appeared to be that checkbox was inappropriate to represent a 
selectOne option. To use checkboxes to select *one* goes against the 
traditional visual metaphor in forms.

Did something change? Or was the alteration of the possible graphical 
representations overlooked for updating?

Thanks
