The [http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/ HTML 5 specification] doesn't specifically address the issue of editable area behavior. However it's founded on the assumption that rich elements inside an editable area should have the same behavior as they would if they weren't inside an editable area (see [http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/editing.html#user-editing-actions user editing actions] section). This seems to be confirmed by Ian Hickson on [http://lists.whatwg.org/htdig.cgi/whatwg-whatwg.org/2009-August/021680.html Whatwg list] and by Richard Schwerdtfeger on [http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/wai-xtech/2009Jul/0179.html WAI ARIA list]. | The [http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/ HTML 5 specification] doesn't specifically address the issue of editable area behavior.
