In the section discussing dropzone
(http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-html5-20110525/dnd.html#dnd) there needs to be
more instruction for user agents as to what roles/states need to be assigned to
dropzone areas.  

User agents shouldn't be left guessing about how to communicate with
accessibility APIs related to drag and drop areas. It is necessary to indicate
to users that an area is available to drop content being dragged, and the way
to accomplish this is not defined in the spec.
