However, it seems like only the following roles make sense: no role, alert, log, marquee, status, timer 38540 1 ian 2010-09-07 17:41:54 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment. If you are satisfied with this response, please change the state of this bug to CLOSED. If you have additional information and would like the editor to reconsider, please reopen this bug. If you would like to escalate the issue to the full HTML Working Group, please add the TrackerRequest keyword to this bug, and suggest title and text for the tracker issue; or you may create a tracker issue yourself, if you are able to do so. For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Partially Accepted Change Description: see diff given below Rationale: I've limited <label> to no roles. I don't understand how any of the roles listed make any sense. <label> is only supposed to be used to label form controls. I couldn't find an appropriate role, but until recently I had just left the elements without appropriate roles mostly unrestricted, and I missed <label> when fixing that recently. 38543 2 contributor 2010-09-07 17:44:50 +0000 Checked in as WHATWG revision r5427. Check-in comment: Fix <label>'s ARIA restrictions http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=5426&to=5427 43132 3 w3c 2010-12-07 15:55:11 +0000 ARIA mapping is further defined in ISSUE-129 and default roles described in http://www.paciellogroup.com/blog/misc/HTML5/aria-html5-proposal.html There the default role is none, but allowed roles are: "If specified, role must be alert, log, marquee, presentation, status or timer. Applicable widget attributes and global attributes." Therefore the fix for this bug differs from the proposal and should be addressed together with ISSUE-129 43145 4 w3c 2010-12-07 16:48:50 +0000 The bug-triage sub-team thinks this is task force priority. Assigning the bug to Cynthia Shelly so that is handled in ISSUE-129. 43154 5 ian 2010-12-07 21:09:29 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.

For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Rejected Change Description: no spec change Rationale: alert, log, marquee, status and timer make no sense for <label>. presentation is already allowed. If this is to be handled in an issue, then the bug should not be open. 43389 6 cooper 2010-12-15 14:42:08 +0000 This is part of HTML-ISSUE-129. There is some debate taking place actively. Therefore bug triage sub-team thinks this is a HTML A11Y TF priority. Adding a11ytf keyword and assigning to Steve Faulkner for ARIA mapping sub-team. 81633 7 faulkner.steve 2013-01-21 13:21:55 +0000 review for HTML 5.1
