The Document Outline view in the Wave Tool is very helpful for viewing a
thousand foot view of the document's heading semantics.
Recently, I had a co-worker express concern over the presentation of these
semantics while viewing a page with hidden content (ex. non-active tab
panels).
Can someone provide a detail explanation of the expectations while view the
document outline for a page with visually-hidden content?
Thanks in advance.

I've seen a recent popular tab panel example where with CSS disabled or with a screen reader off-screen headings (which were also the tabs) were duplicated in such a way that headings appeared with one set right after each other without any content after them and then headings and content. This was confusing and not really correct page structure when viewed with a screen reader or with CSS disabled. The tabs should not have been marked up as headings and the document outline view will help show this.
