So, this looks like our final wording for the keyboard operation provision:
Where products have a keyboard or a keyboard interface, all functionality
of the product operable through the user interface must be operable through
the keyboard, or a keyboard interface. Specific timing for individual
keystrokes must not be required. This provision does not apply where the
underlying function requires input that depends on the full path of the
user's movement, not just the endpoints.
Note: Keyboard interface can be either a hardware keyboard interface, a
wireless interface or a software keyboard interface where AT can generate
keystrokes that would be seen by software.
Objections only please.
Andi
