Description alexander surkov 2012-04-18 07:02:36 UTC
spec suggests:
"MSAA	ROLE_SYSTEM_ TEXT"
etc

bdo is used to override the Unicode bidirectional algorithm, so in case of IA2 and ATK it affects on writing-mode text attribute. But I don't see any sense to have an accessible for it. Note, I don't know about OS X and UIAutomation, we need experts for that.
