Status: VERIFIED FIXED

A <groupbox> logically groups controls.
It has no state, but returns ROLE_GROUPING and it's label as the accessible name.

The GetElementsByTagName I think walks the entire tree and takes a long time.
We might look into a more efficient way of doing this.

remove the comment about reusing the HTML widget in the nsAccessibilityService
method

[Aaron Leventhal]

In this case GetElementsByTagName is only walking the <groupbox> subtree, which
shouldn't be large at all.

-- Groupbox is implemented. nsIAccessible's attributes and methods work as
intended for Groupbox.  Marking bug as verified.
