> > Currently the HTML5 header element has an AXRoleDescription="banner". This is the same description as for the ARIA banner landmark role.

> The current behavior for the `header` element is slightly more complex: if the `header` element is not contained within an `article` or `section` element, it has a description of "banner". If it is contained in one of those elements, it falls back to "group".

> Regardless of what we do with this bug, we should test that behavior. Same goes for the `footer` element. I'll throw a patch up under https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88911

> "header" or "heading"? The latter would be trivial, the former wouldn't be much more work.

tested with this https://dl.dropbox.com/u/377471/tests/header-role.html
works as you described
header not in artcile or section = banner
header in article/section = group
