[MichaelC]: this is a spin-off from action-1688 whose approach we decided not to pursue
19 Nov 2015, 18:02:51[MichaelC]: work with Matt to make it clear elements referred to by aria-activedescendant have a clear context
19 Nov 2015, 18:20:54New branch. Commit: https://github.com/w3c/aria/commit/f7220c213
Spec view:
* https://rawgit.com/w3c/aria/action-1743/aria/aria.html#aria-activedescendant
* https://rawgit.com/w3c/aria/action-1743/aria/aria.html#application
Changes:
* Made aria-activedescendant a supported property of application
* Added a statement (list item 3) under application indicating that
managing focus + aria-activedescendant is an acceptable way for
authors to ensure content inside an application is accessible
* Added mention of this to the existing combobox example in
aria-activedescendant
Setting state to pending review because it's pending review. Captain Obvious to the rescue!
