Computed role, not the content attribute. This may also be accessed as Element.computedRole() if a related change goes into DOM.

There are already attribute selectors, so if the dev needed the content attribute value, they already could already match on [role="whatever"]:

<button role="foo">test<button>

Would be matched by either:

*[role="foo"]
*:role(button)
