When looking at the below code sample with an element that contains only `&nbsp;`, inside a region, inside a document, inside an application. Then it breaks VoiceOver navigation and will exit the region. ``` <div role="application"> <div role="document"> <div aria-label="Testing region in application" role="region" > <h1>This text is read out</h1> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>This text is ignored</p> </div> </div> </div> ``` This issue was found when looking at an email inside the Outlook webmail client. I've also tested this using role="article" instead of region and it has the same issue. 2076733 1 webkit-bug-importer 2024-11-21 09:40:28 -0800 <rdar://problem/140351781>
