A.3.2.1 The way it is phrased may not give the users what they want.

State:
CLOSED
Product:
ATAG Part A

Description:
A.3.2.1 Data Saved (user interface "chrome", content display): If the authoring tool ends an authoring session due to a time limit (e.g., authenticated session expires), then the content being edited is saved. For Web-Based Authoring Tools, this applies to any content that has already been submitted to the application by the user agent.
RS: I understand what this is getting at, but I don’t think it’s always what the users want here.  I think this clause should go.  A.3.2.2 should mitigate it to the extent possible
JR: How about save but not necessarily overwrite. The problem with relying on adjustable timing is determining how much time is enough, etc., etc.
