I ignore level 3.  Sorry, but the goal doesn't merit the work involved 
(IMO of course):

  [Priority 3]
    A Web content developer *may* [W3C's emphasis] address this
    checkpoint. Otherwise, one or more groups will find it somewhat
    difficult to access information in the document. Satisfying this
    checkpoint will improve access to Web documents.

Not even a "should", not even a "will remove significant barriers".
