I should clarify. I don't mean aria-live on the HTML side. Rather, I mean the way aria-live is exposed to ATs; i.e. an object gets marked as live.
> Is the waiting-requirement indeed a use case of aria-live? Not of aria-live in HTML, no. However, I think we could generalise the "live" mechanism to things other than aria-live. In this case, an object would be marked as live but requiring notification/synchronisation. When the AT sees this, it would know to notify the object when it is done handling the live update.
