According to https://www.paciellogroup.com/blog/2015/02/html5-canvas-sub-dom/ the fallback content of <canvas> can be a whole DOM and must be useful (as always presented to screen readers).

Our example on the <canvas> page [1] should reflect this (as people are quick to cut & paste).

Filing this because I'm a bit of a hurry and have no time to fix it now.
