There was a problem hiding this comment.
personally, think it reads a bit awkard and long without that comma after "stop the audio", but i agree with that added comma in the next line

Yea, it has a lot of "or"s, but I think that's the way to make clear it applies to both.

any chance the second note from https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/1825/files could also be grafted onto this? then i'd be happy to close #1825 in preference to this PR |

On the paragraph, we had a comment that I agree with: "As not all user agents have this capability, the author may not rely on it. So this paragraph does not help the author, as they need to care themselves anyway." |
They can rely on it if they're only supporting a platform/user agent that does have it (though not applicable to open web, more closed systems). But I do think it's worth having something that explains that this can't be relied on/does not pass. It helps auditors in determining whether it's a pass or fail... |
