The scope of this group and the spec it produces is deliberately narrow to maximize the chance of success, minimize the chance of scope creep, and to avoid overlapping responsibilities with other established groups, in particular WAI.
This spec shall:
- Create scripting alternatives to all accessibility functionality that can be expressed via declarative HTML markup.
- Make it possible to create virtual accessibility objects that do not correspond to a DOM node.
- Make it possible to listen to events directly from accessibility clients such as assistive technology.
This spec shall not:
- Define new states or properties that an accessible element can have that do not already have corresponding declarative markup in HTML.
- Define new native APIs or behaviors for accessibility clients such as assistive technology.
