The new scoping drops \"user agent\", focusing instead on \"content implemented using markup languages\".  This is OK, but the prior scoping has a key positive property this lacks: It interacts well with WCAG2ICT's definition of \"user agent\", and so would apply to things like e-Book readers, on-line help systems (applications that \"retrieve and present documents\") - even where the content is plain text, but would NOT apply to general parts of a software user interface\r\n\r\nThe Exception is a good improvement over the 7Dec17 draft."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/w3c/wcag21/issues/comments/363502435","html_url":"https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/issues/759#issuecomment-363502435","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/w3c/wcag21/issues/759","id":363502435,"user":{"login":"lauracarlson","id":6214544,"avatar_url":"https://avatars1.githubusercontent.com/u/6214544?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/lauracarlson","html_url":"https://github.com/lauracarlson","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lauracarlson/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lauracarlson/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lauracarlson/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lauracarlson/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lauracarlson/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lauracarlson/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lauracarlson/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lauracarlson/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lauracarlson/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-02-06T17:36:44Z","updated_at":"2018-02-06T17:36:44Z","author_association":"CONTRIBUTOR","body":"[Unofficial proposed response]\r\n\r\nThank you for bringing this to our attention. It is good to know how the WCAG2ICT's User Agent definition worked well with the scoping of this SC in our December draft.\r\n\r\nIt would be great if the scope could be reverted. Unfortunately, the change is needed because the SC is not achievable in PDF and cannot be reliably tested in PDF user agents.\r\n\r\nConsequently, we are pleased that you consider the current wording OK. If the situation changes, the Working Group would be happy to revisit in future guidelines."}}
