Chris, do you know whether this is a bug? It seems that VoiceOver (or the Mac Accessibility framework?) will only place something in the accessibility hierarchy if it has a Description property.

Well, in the case on bug 61995, the DIV has a role of "article" and I have debugged through and checked that accessibilityIsIgnored is definitely returning FALSE. Note that in that case, also, there is no difference between the two DIVs other than one has an aria-label property and one has an aria-labelledby property. As aria-label is exposed as a Description, this DIV shows up in the accessibility hierarchy, but since aria-labelledby is (currently) exposed as a Title, that element does not show up.
