           Summary: [GTK] Refactor code for translating offsets between
                    WebCore a11y and ATK
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: Gtk
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Accessibility
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mario at webkit.org

At the moment, and due to the extra flattening we do sometimes in WebKitGTK when it comes to exposing the accessibility hierarchy (e.g. list items and bullets get exposed as a single ATK Object) we need to do some adjustments whenever we need to consider offsets specified from the ATs (ATK world) and those handled internally in WebKit (WebCore a11y).

At the moment we have some snippets of code in the implementation of the AtkText interface, but it's sometimes not clear how to use them and so it would be good to refactor that code both to make it clearer and simpler.
