           Summary: AX: Refactor accessibility name computation so it's
                    more platform independent
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Accessibility
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: cfleizach at apple.com

The current model of determining the accessible text for an object has a lot of Mac biases built in due to legacy implementation. 

This patch will categorize and order accessibility text based on WAI-ARIA text computation rules and then allows the platform (only Mac right now) to decide how best to apply that text to its own AX API.
