When an element has an inert attribute, the user agent must mark that element and all its descendants as inert.

-

By default, there is no visual indication of a subtree being inert. Authors are - encouraged to clearly mark what parts of their document are active and which are inert, to avoid - user confusion. In particular, it is worth remembering that not all users can see all parts of a - page at once; for example, users of screen readers, users on small devices or with magnifiers, and - even users just using particularly small windows might not be able to see the active part of a - page and may get frustrated if inert sections are not obviously inert. For individual controls, - the disabled attribute is probably more appropriate.

The inert IDL attribute must reflect the content attribute of the same name.
