3.2.7.4 Implicit ARIA Semantics

The following is stated for the A tag:

"If specified, role must be one of the following: link, button, checkbox,
menuitem, menuitemcheckbox,menuitemradio, tab, or treeitem"

The following are missing however, radio and option.

This change should also be rolled back into HTML5
