Re: AccName utility for live AccName algorithm testing on the fly

Hi Bryan

I really like the idea. One thing that might make it easier for me to use
to use is to find a way to make it work without having to add id=test to
the node, which in some cases requires the label referencing to be
adjusted. I think this could be overcome by having the computed value
section listen to the focused element inside the sandbox area where the
rendered code is showing.
This way a developer could dump in a whole form into the tool, tab around
and see the computed value for whatever has focus.

Cheers,
David MacDonald
