Description


Migrated from https://github.com/WICG/spatial-navigation/issues/25
Originally created by @frivoal on Fri, 16 Feb 2018 06:41:17 GMT


Other specs (most likely HTML) will probably find it convenient if we define a hook in the "Handling key presses" section to let them define what a particular element does when arrow keys are pressed and that element wants to respond (e.g. the <select> element changing which is the currently selected <option>).

EDIT: The discussion in this issue moved to a completely different, and more interesting topic. Repurposing the issue to talk about that.
