Won't this allow onclick attributes on all of the aforementioned tags? Which means that one AAT user could add JavaScript that another user could execute?

This was added to allow aria-hidden, if we think the above is a risk then we can add specific attributes. I believe like this:

attributes: { foo: 'true', bar: true }

It definitely is a risk if it allows all attributes.

@simondate , so allow, aria-hidden, aria-label?

I would want data-glossaryterm included as it's the way you open glossary items within elements on the page.

If onclick is the only thing we're concerned about could we just disable that?

I wouldn't go with disabling things. Something new is always added that makes denies redundant. Permissive allows are generally a better idea (as per the French vs British legal system).

How about we don't set the default config to allow/deny extra things that are specific to a vendor, but we instead just add allowEmpty and RemoveFormat to support the given use-case?

allowEmpty would fix the original issue, but I feel the glossary extension should be supported, considering it's a Core extension

Does this work?

      {
        "name": ".*",
        "attributes": "^(id|role|aria-.+|data-.+)$",
        "classes": true,
        "styles": true
      },

In theory that should allow all aria- and data- prefixed attributes as well as role and id.
