Details

From the name, I have the impression that TextAccessibleWrap::GetCharacterExtents is supposed to tell you the bounding rectangle of a chunk of *text*. However, the MSAA implementation just finds the bounding rectangle of a bunch of *frames* (sp. lineboxes, I think). This may just be an over-conservative estimate, but it seems like it could be completely wrong.
Closing as part of a batch cleanup of old untouched bugs. This bug hasn't been touched for at least 2000 days.
