This should have been addressed by:
[[
If element is not focused or is not a descendant of the element with whose context the method is associated, then abort these steps.
[...]
Inform the user of the location given by the path. The full location of the corresponding fallback element is passed to the accessibility API, if supported. User agents may wait until the next time the event loop reaches its "update the rendering" step to inform the user.
