<pre>As one example, in AXObjectCacheMac.mm when it's populating the userInfo dictionary to pass to AXPostNotificationWithUserInfo:
[userInfo setObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:intent.type] forKey:NSAccessibilityTextStateChangeTypeKey];
However, intent.type is of type AXTextStateChangeType, an enum defined in WebCore/accessibility/AXTextStateChangeIntent.h, and that numeric value is being passed directly to VoiceOver without any translation. As it is now, adding a new enum value to AXTextStateChangeType (in cross-platform code) would probably break WebKit on Mac.
In addition to separating the cross-platform constants from the Mac-specific constants, it'd be fantastic if you could document the protocol a bit more, since none of these keys appear in the 10.11 SDK or anywhere online yet.
Thanks.</pre>
