9326: might be a duplicate of 10066
16:24:24 [MichaelC]
pinging Cynthia to verify, added note to bug
16:24:43 [MichaelC]
(that is, 10066 has taken over the role of ARIA mapping omnibus bug, so 9326 not needed)
16:25:00 [MichaelC]

Just for the record, list of bugs we are working on as of Aug 1 2010 http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/buglist.cgi?keywords=a11ytf&bug_status=RESOLVED&resolution=NEEDSINFO&resolution=INVALID&resolution=WONTFIX

8644: this is an omnibus @alt bug on several elements
16:40:29 [MichaelC]
seems primarily related to <embed>
16:40:42 [MichaelC]
(fall back for the other elements being addressed separately)
16:41:01 [MichaelC]
10077 separately requests @alt for <embed>
16:41:54 [MichaelC]
<object> has a fallback model via being "transparent", but <embed> lacks this
16:43:29 [MichaelC]
there's confusion about when to use <embed> and when to use <object>
16:45:48 [MichaelC]
and whether fallback content as supported by <object> is browser support fallback or accessibility alternative fallback
16:46:07 [MichaelC]
these are two separate use cases, even though sometimes they get confused / blended
16:48:52 [MichaelC]
as defined in http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/content-models.html#fallback-content, the fallback for object is for browser support and does not address accessibility
16:50:11 [MichaelC]
so this leads us to conclude that both <embed> and <object> do not have accessibility fallback mechanisms at the moment
16:52:19 [MichaelC]
this issue turns out to be represented by 8885
