I think it is an issue, and so does the TAG (as far as I understand their feedback, see <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2010Jan/0024.html>). This change proposal is (or would be) really different from others in that it requires touching many many parts of the spec, and once this is done, it may have to be repeated again once sloppy terminology gets back in. So maybe a compromise would be to allow the change proposal to restrict itself to the terminology section and one other section where it would have impact. Changing the remainder of the spec could then be done in a second step. Best regards, Julian
