I just meant I don't need to chip in on those threads because I know you
will :)

Have you seen the ARIA roadmap? It defines within page navigation using
the role element in XHTML 2.0:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/WD-aria-roadmap-20060926/#landmarks

I haven't caught up on XHTML 2 yet, but that might make the @key
redundant?

Skip links as well potentially, I just need to look into the IBM
additions to see how well it will work in the near future (adding
classes rather than roles).

Kind regards,
