           Summary: AX: Need to expose aria-activedescendant more
                    consistently
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Accessibility
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

@aria-activedescendant is being exposed inconsistently.

WebKit exposes it under AXSelectedRows for some controls like AXOutline (role="tree"), AXList (role="listbox"), and possibly AXMenu (role="menu"), but WebKit doesn't expose @aria-activedescendant at all on some controls, like generic textfields. WebKit does expose it (as the AXSelected option in the AXList) in comboboxes if the author hooks up the AXOwns relationship properly to point to the popup listbox.

However WebKit exposes @aria-activedescendant, it should be more consistent.
