We discussed this in the last two meetings, but I wanted to make sure we had a specific tracker for it. This might get incorporated into #220
I just tested this out because I'm very puzzled by it, as it conflicts with how I understand aria-label
should work. It should only be used in conjunction with specific roles or on specific elements. But Chrome is definitely returning it on a generic.
Did this change at some point?
Also, I'm noting here that there's a wider pattern that I'm noticing where other spec is changed or updated but there's no issue to also update ACCNAME. Only noting it so I can take an action item to discuss this with @accdc when we next meet.
That label/labelledby is allowed on a generic as part of a traversal may be in conflict with "name prohibited", so we have a joint issue between the AccName and ARIA specs...
