Hi Rich,

Are you sure it wasn't consciously dropped in favour of @role? It's the kind of thing we'd do. :)

Regards,

Mark

The <purpose> element was dropped from actions in the XML Events 2 specification. If you recall we had a purpose element as a child of the old handler element which is now called <action>. We need purpose to be a child of this.

<purpose> would contain text describing the purpose of the action which could be supported by a platform accessibility api to list the actions that can beformed on a document object.

I would request that this be added.
