+### Deferred APG patterns
+
+- alert-dialog: Deferred until dialog purpose distinguishes urgent confirmation or attention from a general modal dialog.
+- grid: Deferred until a static-versus-interactive grid discriminator and keyboard interaction model are defined.
+- switch: Deferred until a binary toggle model distinguishes switch behavior from a generic form field.
+- toolbar: Deferred until control-group behavior and its focus-management model are defined.
+- treegrid: Deferred until static-versus-interactive grid selection and the hierarchical tree interaction model are defined.
