[perspectives - keyboard] shortcuts have to be obvious

Closed this issue · 2 comments

This is hard, because there isn't so much a best practice as various least-worst ones. But it is really important that shortcuts are discoverable, and that they don't override defaults in the user's system.

Which isn't that easy to achieve in practice :(

@chaals - I agree. But did you mean discoverable as in "programatically determined" (eg using label and ARIA attributes), or visually identifiable (eg keyboard focus and CSS presentation), or both?

The word "shortcuts" has been replaced by "keystrokes", which resolves this issue.
