The Accname specification states that if the current node is hidden (as defined by that spec), and not directly referenced by aria-labelledby or aria-describedby, and is not a host language text alternative, the empty string should be returned. We're seeing bugs where the text under the element is being included for certain "hidden" nodes. For instance in the test case found here, https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/blob/master/accname/description_from_content_of_describedby_element-manual.html, the "in" from the table is being included.
