URL: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/semantics.html#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements I have seen many applications (internally) where headings have tabindices of "0," which in turn have helped sighted keyboard only users when they tab through webpages. Now, some may disagree - but I would like to get a feel for whether this is something HTML.n can implement. Reiterating it -- would it help to make headings receive keyboard focus by default? thanks, Devarshi
No, we won't do this. In cases where it makes sense people can continue to use tabindex=0 but otherwise making all headings interactive just clutters up user navigation.
