Right now any layout test of the role of an element must be customized for each platform. If the author of the test doesn't have the ability to generate different expectations and verify they're correct, many tests end up being written that only work on one platform.

Ideas:
* Add an accessor to accessibilityUIElement for a cross-platform role string.
* Add a method to search the tree for the first instance of a cross-platform role
