David, I think you are reading things differently to me. I don't know the authors true intention, but I read his words as being a call for "anyone who wants to see ARIA implemented" to join their team, not necessarily "someone who is on the ARIA team".
I do also agree with the sentiments though - there is an obvious need to treat 'applications' differently from 'content' in quite a number of ways, and at the moment there is not even a way to signal this explicitly.

Interested to know others thoughts on the subject.
