            Bug ID: 201410
           Summary: VoiceOver reads text in the wrong order when an inline
                    element not separated by whitespace wraps onto the
                    next line
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 12
          Hardware: Unspecified
               URL: https://jsfiddle.net/903h5qme/show
                OS: macOS 10.14
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Accessibility
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: bugs.webkit.org at zetafleet.com

Reproduction:

1. Open test case https://jsfiddle.net/mwutjzvn/show
2. Focus the first link (e.g. by clicking it) so it is read out by VoiceOver

Expected: VoiceOver speaks `link, one two three four five`
Actual: VoiceOver speaks `link, five one two three four`

If a `<br>` is placed at the same point where the text would automatically wrap, VoiceOver reads correctly.

If the `<span>` is separated by whitespace so it wraps on its own instead of wrapping with the surrounding text, VoiceOver reads correctly.

Possibly related to https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=182881.

This bug also happens in Chrome; I don’t know if it is a shared code bug or an OS bug.

macOS 10.12.6 through 10.14.6.
Safari 12.1.2 (12607.3.10).
