            Bug ID: 273635
           Summary: AX: VoiceOver cursor does not sync with browser focus
                    after closing dialog when interactive element is
                    positioned behind it
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 17
          Hardware: iPhone / iPad
                OS: iOS 17
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Accessibility

Issue summary: When there is an interactive element positioned behind a <dialog> OR custom modal (i.e. the box-model of the interactive element overlaps/coincides with the box-model of the <dialog>/custom modal), the VoiceOver cursor does not sync with browser focus (as all other screen readers we've tested do: NVDA, JAWS, TalkBack). Instead, the VO cursor moves to the interactive element that is positioned directly behind (or closest to) where focus was just before the modal was closed.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open https://codepen.io/marcsolo/pen/RwOzRvy in iOS Safari
2. Turn on VoiceOver
3. Navigate to Dialog A button in <header>
4. Activate button
5. Activate Close button in dialog

Expected result: VoiceOver cursor moves back to the button that you used to open the dialog (syncs with position of focus in browser)

Actual result: VoiceOver cursor moves to Example button that is positioned behind where dialog was displayed

Note: This issue may be related to Bug 263069 - AX: VoiceOver on iOS moves focus away, even when HTMLElement.focus() is called on an element
