Comment: The success criteria have rather lengthy titles because the
titles and the descriptions of them are one and the same thing. It would
be helpful for web development project meetings to have short-form names
for all the success criteria (and perhaps for the Guidelines as well - but
it is less relevant for the principles as there are only four of them).

Example 1: 'Make all functionality operable in a keyboard'

Example 2: 'For each time-out, one of the following is true: user can
deactivate it/ default can be changed by a factor of 10x/ a simple action
can extend the time-out at least 10x on a sliding scale and the user is
given a 20 second warning/ no alternative to the time-out is possible/ it
is an activity where timing is essential.'
