section element should allow role=group #249

@mitchellevan

Description

@mitchellevan

Current

Currently the HTML section element does not allow role=group.

Other HTML elements have implicit landmark roles, yet do allow role=group:

  • header (in some contexts)
  • footer (in some contexts)
  • nav

Proposed

Since the section element sometimes has a landmark role and sometimes does not, like header and footer, the section element should also allow role=group.
