           Summary: AX: Initial text selection point should respect
                    element focus.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh Intel
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.9
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Accessibility
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: samuel_white at apple.com

When AX is running and we have no selection, pressing an arrow key initializes selection to the beginning of the document. Initial selection should respect and key off of the focused element if one is present. This would make it possible for a user to navigate halfway down a page using tab, and then hit an arrow key to start reading text from that point.
