           Summary: AX: Removing a node from AXObjectCache should not
                    happen in destructor
           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: dmazzoni at google.com


When a Node is deleted, AXObjectCache has to be notified so it doesn't have any stale references to that object. However, doing that in the Node destructor is problematic - in particular, it needs some hacks so that it can be called at different times in ContainerNode's destructor vs Node's destructor.

Instead, this should be called in another method of Node that always gets called before the destructor.

Let's add an assertion in debug mode that ensures this method always got called.
