Sorry, I see now that this is given as a hint. Please consider raising it to an error.

I have confirmed in the field that empty Text elements causes the subtitles not to render on Series 1 DLP Projectors.

Thanks!

I'm torn between seeing the real-world issue you are describing and trying to protect the clear-cut (to the best of our understanding) error class.

At the time of deciding the class for empty Text elements we had a discussion with ISDCF contributors and agreed that we couldn't pull a violation out of the specs. It just wasn't there.

I so hoped that the hint would be enough :/ Do you have gathered more data/experience with the issue in the meantime?
