https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77298

           Summary: ARIA spinbutton role incorrectly mapped to
                    ProgressIndicatorRole
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Accessibility
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: faulkner.steve at gmail.com


The HTML5 input type=number  element as implemented in webkit includes a spinbutton control which is mapped as 

AXRole:  "AXIncrementor"
 AXSubrole:  "(null)"
 AXRoleDescription:  "stepper"

The ARIA spinbutton role is currently mapped to 
 { "spinbutton", ProgressIndicatorRole }, in webkit

(source: AccessibilityObject.cpp: 1376)


The WAI -ARIA implementation guide maps spinbutton to (source:http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-implementation/#mapping_role_table)
AXRole:  "AXIncrementor"
 AXSubrole:  "(null)"
 AXRoleDescription:  "stepper"



Recommend fixing implementation so it maps to the correct role.
