spin off the second point of bug 1904796 comment 1 to here
Expose the highlighted range to AT. Here "wrapping in <mark>", we can't modify the DOM since that would break scripts and violate specs. We could change the Accessibility tree, although it might need to insert multiple mark nodes since the range can cross element boundaries. Otherwise we'd need some way to annotate a range of text as being highlighted.
