Description Andi Snow-Weaver 2010-02-10 18:14:57 UTC 
Some roles override the default values of state/property attributes. For example, the default value of aria-orientation is "horizontal" but the scrollbar defaults to "vertical". We have not addressed these overrides in the UAIG.
Comment 1 Andi Snow-Weaver 2010-05-04 18:45:06 UTC 
Need to clarify what defaults mean. Add some wording before the table similar to wording in 5.3 Author Errors "If a required aria property for a given role is missing, user agents SHOULD process as if the following values were provided:"

Then add defaults for particular roles if different. For example, in aria-orientation="vertical" cell, add "(default for scrollbar)"
