Description Lisa Seeman 2012-10-30 14:03:06 UTC 
MSAA + IAccessible2 is instructed to propagate STATE_SYSTEM_UNAVAILABLE if aria-disabled="true", but not if aria-disabled="false" the clear STATE_SYSTEM_UNAVAILABLE does NOT propagate. 

ATK also looks inconsistent. Should we clear STATE_ENABLED if aria-disabled="true"

Note :the test cases (83,82) consistent with the UI doc as it is. So if this is incorrect then the test cases should be updated

David, 

For aria-disabled="false", should we clear the STATE_SYSTEM_UNAVAILABLE ?

Likewise, for the ATK column, should we clear STATE_ENABLED ?
Comment 2 David Bolter 2012-11-27 18:40:43 UTC 
I think the ATK column is fine. For the IA2 column we could say "Do not expose STATE_SYSTEM_UNAVAILABLE and do not propogate  STATE_SYSTEM_UNAVAILABLE to children."

I think using the verb "clear" is problematic.

Closed as per AAPI meeting.
