RE: Issue with ARIA 1.1 regarding which roles include children presentational = true ?

Bryan,

Role treeitem should not be children presentational true. A element with
the role treeitem can have children that are semantically important and
should be included in the accessibility tree.

Good question, I'm not sure, would be good to get others opinions about
this.

I'm concerned at which level it should stop making sense, such as embedded
lists, tables, etc. None of that works intuitively in a link for example.

Links can include block elements in html5.
Should those elements be ignored when they have a semantic role?
example:
<a href="#"><h2>Foo</h2</a>
Should assistive technologies expose this is an h2 link, or just as a link?
