Programmatic methods for alternate input solutions

[LJWatson]

From an accessibility perspective it would be valuable to have A programmatic way for alternate input solutions to drive some of the changes. For example, an AT might want to insert the text now that this can be done in a device independent way. Some of this may be provided for in UI Automation (Windows platform) but are they
provided on others?

Filed from the feedback from APA WG.

The input types as they are specified now should be device independent, so the same event should be triggered no matter how the user did what what he did. So that part should be covered.

I wonder if what you are asking for is a list of devices that the browser should be able to take input from for specific input types?
