Bug 1660290 - Robustify text marker reverse iteration. r?Jamie
47 bytes, text/x-phabricator-request
Details | Review

Iterating backwards, linked list style, using AXPreviousTextMarkerForTextMarker. Gives inconsistent results with forward iterating with AXNextTextMarkerForTextMarker. This is mostly caused by the way we normalize the offset to point to the first character in the deepest hyperlink, or the end offset outside of a link if it was on the last character there.

This causes us to skip hyperlink elements when iterating backwards.
