Resolution status:

While the aria-describedby (ARIA1) test procedure actually describes how the attribute can be used to satisfy certain SC by providing additional contextual info, the test procedure
for aria-labelledby (ARIA7) does not do this and only tests for correctness of id values.
Current:
Check that each ID in the value of the aria-labelledby attribute matches an ID of a text
element used as part of the link purpose.


Proposed Change:
Add: The Text referenced by the aria-labelled attribute adequately describes the link's
purpose.
(space separated ids)
