implemeting an improved access key [was Re: Q4 2009 Accessibility Goals]

aloha, david!

one of the items that need to be considered is that HTML5 dropped
accesskey as it was defined in HTML 4.01 -- the PF (Protocols &
Formats) working group at the W3C has a long-standing list of 
accesskey replacement requirements, drafted by RichS, and available
at:

http://esw.w3.org/topic/PF/XTech/HTML5/AccesskeyRequirements

perhaps there can be som synthesis of effort on this?  mozilla 
could be an integral aspect of fixing accesskey,

gregory.
