Summary AX: Cannot follow in-page links with VoiceOver in iOS 11

In iOS 11 you can currently not follow any in-page links to anything but inputs. Steps to reproduce: 1. Activate VoiceOver (on iOS 11) 2. Open http://jsbin.com/wumitiw in Safari 3. Navigate to any of the links (except "link to input") 4. Follow the link (i.e. double tap) Result: The focus moves to the correct element for a split second and then moves back onto the link that was clicked on. Expected: The focus should go and stay where the link pointed to.

I just re-checked this in iOS 12 and iOS 13. The issue is still in iOS 12 but seems to have been fixed in iOS 13.
