Description Rich Schwerdtfeger 2012-10-09 19:01:07 UTC 
Modify section 7.1 to address this post. 

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2012Oct/0011.html

Specifically, make the change suggested by Ted to change "screen readers" to printers. 

Include the additional text regarding focusable content specified in the post pertaining to:

"Although active,
content hidden by the hidden attribute is not focusable and does not
participate in sequential focus navigation."
Comment 1 Edward O'Connor 2012-10-09 19:18:02 UTC 
This bug requests two distinct changes, so I'll clone it and address each change separately.
Comment 2 Edward O'Connor 2012-10-09 19:20:20 UTC 
Adjusted title so that this bug only addresses the second requested change.
