(In reply to Scott from comment #2)
> Adding onto this:
> 
> As I've also encountered the lack of landmark that Paul has outlined per the
> footer scoped to the body, I've also come to realize that Webkit exposes the
> address element as a contentinfo landmark instead.
> 
> Tested with Safari 12 + Chrome 72 (mac and PC), the accessibility inspectors
> in both browser's dev tools expose the address element as contentinfo. Thus
> VoiceOver treats the address element as a landmark.
> 
> With Chrome on Windows, address is also exposed as having a contentinfo
> role, but JAWS and NVDA ignore this, instead only surfacing <footer> as a
> contentinfo landmark.

> Expected results:
> Address should not be exposed as a contentinfo landmark in Webkit.
> Footer (when scoped to the body element) should.
