Cynthia reported on the telecon today that she's continuing to work on  
this, will have revisions for the TF in about 3 weeks, and thinks she  
may have a proposal for the group within 4 weeks. I have updated the  
issue status page to reflect that: <http://dev.w3.org/html5/status/issue-status.html#ISSUE-032

My understanding from the Accessibility Task Force status report  
during the telecon is that neither Cynthia's nor Laura's proposal  
currently has consensus of the TF, and the TF will continue to discuss  
the issue.
