So, all the places where we allow aria properties, tabindex propeties, etc. to override role="presentation, put this all in one place.

role, label, global aria attributes, non-global aria attributes, tabindex (all values) would override role="presentation" or "none" , unless it is in hidden via display:none or html5 hidden.

There is a spot in the Core-aam that links back to the ARIA spec to point out cases where role="presentation/none" is overridden by other factors. The trouble is that the link is to the *entire* section of the presentation spec.

Having to read and scan the entire presentation/none section makes it difficult to see what actually overrides uses of role="presentation". What is needed is s section that lists these exceptions in one place. That place is where the Core-aam will link to.
