Description
There's a very explicit distinction in web standards and practice between a header, and a heading. You guys seem to have called Heading a Header.
This is a pretty weird issue for me since I'm building a site using a custom semantic theme, and I have to explicitly not import the Semantic Header, and make a custom element called Header that's an actual header.
W3C terminology for reference:
https://www.w3.org/wiki/HTML/Elements/h1,_h2,_h3,_h4,_h5,_and_h6
These elements represent headings for their sections.
https://www.w3.org/wiki/HTML/Elements/header
The <header> element represents a group of introductory or navigational aids.
It would be nice if there was a real Header in semantic as well BTW.
