• Re-title to "Grid"
• Have 2 sub-sections within the description for "Data Grids" and "Layout Grids"
• Keyboard Section
  • Need to add something about navigating to the cell or the content (Matt to write)
• Re-write description section to remove information which is no longer relevant in ARIA 1.1 and to add content about new features in ARIA 1.1

New grid design pattern replaces 2 patterns

This new grid pattern replaces the prior grid pattern plus the actionable sortable column header section that followed it.
It covers both data grids and layout grids and refers to a new placeholder table design pattern as well.
Separate subsections for data and layout grids are included with their own keyboard interaction subsections.
Following the data and layout grid subsections, is a keyboard interaction subsection   with factors that are common to both.

The roles, states, and properties subsection is updated to also cover ARIA properties for
label, labelledby, describedby, sort, owns,
colcount, colindex, rowcount, rowindex, HTML colspan, and HTML rowspan.

This revision also adds a placeholder appendix section about screen reader reading modes.
