Visual focus for off-screen elements is an issue for users of screen magnification and low vision users, with no visual keyboard indication and no tracking of programmatic focus in the magnified area. This makes "fallback content" appear to be the "text-only alternative" of this decade. Until there are strong recommendations for how to make Canvas content accessible, there is a huge risk of unequal access to interesting and innovative content.
