I have a slight issue on the testability of : "A mechanism shall be available to bypass blocks of content that are repeated on multiple Web pages."

What exactly constitutes a 'block of content'?

Also if the repeated content is the last thing on the page, is a bypass still necessary? If so, where should it bypass too?
