This is my best attempt to make the accessibility objectives less tied to media overlays.

In place of "Media Overlays", I've used "Synchronized Text-Audio Playback" for the main specification.

I've also added a technique to match each objective. These should work as starters, but they need thorough review.

The examples I added for skippability and escapability were largely copied from the ones already in the media overlays section of the core spec. I just tweaked them to exemplify different semantics. I didn't try to make examples for the reading order and complete text techniques, as these would be complex and time-consuming to build. I don't think they're critical to have.

Let me know if you think I have anything wrong, or have thoughts on how to improve what's there.

Fixes #2221

…to identify all the skippable/escapable structures. The intention is that you don't have to identify other kinds beyond the recommendations, but may.

It seems that escaping from the table entirelly is appropriate. Creating a complex user interface and placing authoring requirements is too much.

Wondering if this example should be coded with role="doc-example"?

Wondering if this example should be coded with role="doc-example"?

If you're asking about examples in general, that's problematic as the superclass is changing to figure in DPUB 1.1. I don't know yet how that impacts its use on asides. I don't want to muck around with the respec template until I'm sure.

Sorry Matt, the code snippit was stripped out it was an example we were providing I believe. See above now.

remove table cell and row semantics and list item from escapable structure lists;
add note about unreliability of support for nested escapable structures to core spec;
add note to the accessibility techniques about the same issue that references across to the core spec for more details;
link semantics to the ssv in the core spec;

Yes, this is what I was referring to. The use of aside with class="example" is part of the template that generates the final specification (triggers reformatting to get the syntax highlighting, example title, etc.).
