Hi Chris, first of all thanks a lot for your comment. I'm pretty new to this WebKit a11y world and I appreciate a lot these kind of comments, really helpful indeed.

Didn't say those methods are not handling that, I've just didn't know of them so perhaps they're working and nothing of this mess I did was needed after all. 
I'll check it out right now as I'd be more than glad if I could find a better and not so ad-hoce solution to this problem, specially considering it touches the core, and not just the gtk layer.

I'll try this out as I also agree my current implementation it's pretty limiting... but at least it achieved one of its functions: to trigget some discussion and get some feedback to head towards the right direction :-)

Thanks!
