ARIA labels don't have a field in the DOM API, so elem.ariaLabel won't actually affect the element. A special case for aria attributes needs to be added where l10n would use setAttribute instead of simply setting the DOM element field.
As far as I can tell, aria-label is the only aria attribute that has strings read by humans, so it really just needs its own special case.
