            Bug ID: 224055
           Summary: AX: `aria-roledescription` does not get communicated
                    inside contenteditable
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 14
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Accessibility
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

Steps: 
1. Open page at http://joycezhu.github.io/aria-roledescription.html.
2. With VoiceOver running, navigate to link in non-editable node. Note that it is read out as "GitHub link, Element with different role in non-editable node."
3. Now, navigate to the beginning of the link in the editable node and move the caret into the link.

Expected:
There is some readout communicating that we are inside "GitHub link", per its aria-roledescription.

Observed:
There is no mention of the "GitHub link" for this element (except sometimes in a very specific case of having the caret at the end of the link before a newline, which is not all that informative).
