Details

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Load data:text/html,<div role='listbox'><div role='group'><div role='option'>item</div></div></div>
  2. Examine the accessibility tree in XCode's accessibility inspector

Expected results: the div with the group role would be present in the accessibility tree.

Actual results: Only the listbox and option are in the accessibility tree.

This problem doesn't appear in Linux, where the group-role div is exposed with ROLE_PANEL as expected.

S3 because this probably impacts reporting of groups where the group is labelled with VO. I also suspect <optgroup> might be broken, since that uses role="group", but I'm not sure.
