            Bug ID: 271287
           Summary: AX: Mac combo boxes should expose
                    aria-activedescendant as AXSelectedChildren
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari Technology Preview
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Accessibility
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

This is necessary, but probably not sufficient, to support https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=231724 (AX: VoiceOver doesn't announce aria-activedescendant value for select-only combobox specification). There are other bugs preventing VoiceOver from working but exposing the active descendant is pretty fundamental so I'd like to get that in first.

Part of the bug is that an element can be both a combo box and a text field, so the supported attribute logic needed to be updated to take that into account.
