Hi,

Imagine you have a (for example) category tree like this:

* Cars
 * Sporty
 * Limo
   * 18 wheeler
 * Bloody good
 * Big
* Places to live in
 * Villa
 * Flat
 * Under bridge
...

and you are to select one for your article of some sort. <optgroup> isn't capable of doing this at the moment as it cannot be nested and you cannot select "Cars" category (it's its label attribute). Currently this is done by
intending with spaces and, in my humble opinion, it doesn't look too
accessible - I wouldn't want to crawl through it with my screenreader if it
was a longer list.

I'm here to ask if there is/could be a better way than intending.

This has been suggested before, and even made it into the spec at one
point, but got removed because there didn't seem to be a way to do
this in a backwards-compatible manner.  There was also the suggestion
of a new element to use for this case, but that appeared late enough
that it's being pushed to "v2" for the moment - html5 already makes a
*ton* of changes and additions to forms.  ^_^

Okey, maybe HTML 6 will cover that... :)
Thanks, OV.
