Exactly.
.navbar { play: optional; skip: true; }
Simplicity itself. And when it is applied, visually you could have:-
[home] [mail] [back] ...
to:
[skip] [home] [mail] [back] ...
Or whatever, based on a UA's built in style processor;
And aurally: "Now follows another stupid navigation bar that you've heard a
million times before. To skip this bar, please holler 'aaargh!' now."
Please, CSS WG, take note.
Maybe better:
.navbar { play: optional; allow-skip: true; alt: uri(#intro); }
Kindest Regards,
