Jon and John -

I agree with both of you. Your explanations have helped me better see
how this will be useful for accessibility in the future and why it
should be advocated for today. I do still find the language of the
success criterion a bit troublesome and I think it could be a bit of a
hard sell to authors in cases where they can't associate adding
@autocomplete with any clear user benefit *today*, but perhaps there
will soon be new or better assistive technologies that will further
utilize this to greatly improve form completion for users with
cognitive and learning disabilities.

Thanks,

Jared
