I'm assuming the rules you're referring to are those at: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#figure0 Are these rules worth the complexity they add? I think in many cases they may actually be harmful. In particular, authors who aren't thinking much about fallback content may be writing captions that would be the most useful fallback content available. Insisting that those captions not be available when there is no fallback content seems like a bad idea. -David -- L.
