396429 - Expose object attribute to explain when a text object ends in a newline

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Disability Access APIs, defect)

Description

[Aaron Leventhal]

The following elements create text which automatically get an effective newline after them:
h1-h6, div, p, li, caption, ...

I'm not sure the complete list, but it can just be based on the display: type (block, list-item, caption, etc.)

We should expose an object attribute "autolinebreaks" = "true" 

Otherwise the AT needs to use the bounds of the object to determine this.

When we check this in we need to change our docs as well.

aAttributes->SetStringProperty(NS_LITERAL_CSTRING("formatting"), NS_LITERAL_STRING("block"),

What is correct?

But in any way patch looks ok.

The one in the patch is correct. Mick and I decided the new name was better.
