test case

See the test case attached. VoiceOver is not announcing the text changes for content editable regions. If you remove the "role" attribute, you do get the announcements, but VoiceOver incorrectly speaks the title of the HTML page along with the selection changes.

Test Case #1 - No announcements
1. Open the test1.html file attached to this radar
2. Turn on VoiceOver
3. Click inside the content editable region
4. Wait for the timer to fire twice, notice that no changes were announced

Test Case #2 - Multiple announcements overrunning each other
1. Open the test2.html file attached to this radar
2. Turn on VoiceOver
3. Click inside the content editable region
4. Wait for the timer to fire twice, notice that VoiceOver speaks the announcements, but incorrectly speaks the title of the HTML file and it interrupts the correct announcement that tells the user what changed in the selection.
