One concern if we choose not to document it would be folks not recognizing it as valid (such as this [ACT rule proposal for ARIA being valid](https://github.com/w3c/aria/discussions/2078#discussioncomment-7885572) and awaiting formal...

@cookiecrook @spectranaut @scottaohara Per Scott's suggestion, I've added additional tests to verify what browsers currently do when both `aria-labeledby` and `aria-labelledby` are present (in that order); it appears that the...

This will need to take into account [`list-style-image`](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-lists-3/#image-markers) where the list marker can be image based (i.e., little spaceships in lieu of bullets or numbers). It's unclear how ATs treat...

@cookiecrook Do we also need a separate ARIA issue for this since role `generic`/`none` elements can be named conditionally? If yes, perhaps we can include an ARIA spec note in...

Meeting minutes from June 27 ARIA WG "undefined" deep dive: https://github.com/w3c/aria/issues/2177#issuecomment-2226727206.

I believe the next steps for `aria-multiselectable` and `aria-current` is specifying that the absence of a value is what should be clarified as "undefined" in prose (i.e., state/property is undefined...
