[orca-list] Strange behavior when using the role attribute in websites

[Andy Borka <sonfire11 gmail com>]

Hi,


Orca master, Ubuntu 19.04.


When I design websites, I often use the role attribute with html 
elements. However, Orca presents some interesting behavior when 
interacting with these types of html elements. When Orca is presented 
with one of these controls, it goes into focus mode and doesn't interact 
with the control very well. For example, a div with role="toolbar" puts 
Orca into focus mode on the toolbar, but the only way to interact with 
the controls inside the toolbar is to press TAB rather than using the 
left/right arrows. In another instance, using role="tree" and 
role="treeitem" puts Orca into focus mode on the tree, but I can't 
interact with the tree nodes. Orca will only go into focus mode when an 
element with the role attribute is the first thing on the page. Any 
ideas what might be going on?
