    <thetext>as part of the definition of Action the following is found:

QUOTE
element . accessKeyLabel
   Exposes the Access Key facet of the command.
UNQUOTE

the spec should explicitly state in

http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/editing.html#the-accesskey-attribute

that user agents can use element.accessKeyLabel to generate list of 
available accesskeys


PROPOSED SPEC TEXT REVISION:

User agents may expose elements that have an accesskey attribute in 
other ways as well, e.g. in a menu displayed in response to a specific 
key combination. &lt;ins&gt;user agents can use 
&lt;code&gt;element.accessKeyLabel&lt;/code&gt; to generate list of available 
accesskeys.&lt;/ins&gt;</thetext>

    <thetext>EDITOR&apos;S RESPONSE: This is an Editor&apos;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:

Status: Rejected
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: That doesn&apos;t make any sense. The user agents are the ones that generate accessKeyLabel, how would they use it to do anything?</thetext>
