Hi Joanie! I understand this is not something you know how to easily fix? I'm afraid that with Carlos Garcia out for a little while, you're the only WebKitGTK a11y expert remaining.

Since this is critical, I think we could probably switch 2.36 back to the old implementation, if you recommend doing so. The code was not deleted until after we branched. Of course, fixing only 2.36 would leave 2.38+ broken, so the problem will hit distros again pretty soon, but it would at least buy us time until Carlos Garcia returns. Adrian is planning to do a 2.36.3 release next week, so we should decide quickly whether to do this huge revert or not. I'm certain Carlos would prefer that we investigate and fix things properly, but realistically, if we need it solved quick, switching back to ATK would be pragmatic.
