Description Frédéric Wang (:fredw) 2015-06-30 03:41:31 PDT 
Set the language of the system to French and reboot your machine. Open the following testcase: data:text/html,<math><msup><mi>x</mi><mn>2</mn></msup></math>

Accessible tree exposed by Safari / Firefox Nightly:
Role: AXGroup
Subrole: AXMathSubscriptSuperscript
accessibilityChildren: 2 items
  1 AXMathIdentifier (x)
  2 AXMathNumber (2)

Actual Result:
VoiceOver reads "x"

Expected Result:
VoiceOver should read "x carré"

Note that in English, VoiceOver correctly reads the text "x squared".
