9 years ago List of all HTML 5 tags from http://www.html-5-tutorial.com/all-html-tags.htm.
These are my gut feelings for the "navigability" of each HTML 5 element. Note
that some elements in the list are deprecated and others are at risk, but are
included here for completeness (and it forces me to think about them).
LEGEND
I = Interactive--must be a leaf node.
I* = may be interactive--is a leaf node if interactive.
NN = non-navigable by default, the parent (grand-parent) should be navigated to
as appropriate
G = Grouping/structural element, not navigable by default, it's children may be
navigable. If there are no child elements (just text, images), then perhaps
these elements should be navigable.
T = Typically navigable as long as it does not contain interactive (I, I*) or
other typically navigable elements (T).
V = Void element contains no content and isn't usually displayed or interacted
with.
