Description Maciej Stachowiak 2010-08-29 01:32:55 UTC 
Allow radio buttons and checkboxes to be used as radio and check menu items respectively.

This would mean <input type=radio> can take either radio or radiomenuitem role, and <input type=checkbox> can take either checkbox or checkmenuitem role.
