Thanks for your review request. We have reviewed the changes in the latest spec, and we don't have any concerns.

You noted the historical issues APA filed on notifications for AT that certain text editing operations had occurred (w3c/input-events#51 and w3c/input-events#52). We feel that, in the past several years, and with the rise of auto-suggestions, it would be appropriate to also consider signals about suggestions being available, and whether any suggestions had been automatically applied.

There were several discussions on the topic of providing AT with notifications about these things, but it doesn't seem that any specific standardisation work was done. Looking back now, we wonder if the reason for this may be variability across OSes with respect to their behaviour, and APIs around text editing and auto-suggestions. Is that something on which you have any thoughts or experience?

We'll continue to make enquiries around these two issues separately; APA is happy for your publication to proceed as planned.
