Description

We should have something similar to https://w3c.github.io/aria/html-aam/#att-contenteditable for EditContext.
Hopefully we can just link to that with some wording about treating an element with an EditContext the same as contenteditable.
(This could also be put in the AAM spec. Not sure which is better.)

Research direction

Start by reading the referenced HTML-AAM section for contenteditable and compare its mapping to the EditContext behavior described here. Determine whether the guidance belongs in the EditContext specification or the AAM specification; done means documenting the appropriate mapping and linking or adapting the relevant wording.
