    <thetext>It&apos;s a little confusing that attributes which have a strong semantic implying an ARIA property are mixed in with elements. It might help readability to put them in a separate table, with the ARIA properties they map to.</thetext>

being a pain to do is not a reason for not doing it, 
in some cases it is mix and match in other cases its not, the reason to do it is does it make it clearer for authors? I think it does. 
Also the current spec text DOES NOT provide requirments for these attributes on all of the elements they are applicable to, so authors could easily miss the requirement to use them as its not explicitly stated.
Note: will be adding the global attribute to the table: draggable</thetext>

    <thetext>The bug-triage sub-team thinks this is task force priority as it is closely related to ARIA mapping. Assigning the bug to Cynthia Shelly so that is handled in ISSUE-129.</thetext>
