--- Comment #11 from Philip Jägenstedt <philipj@opera.com> ---
What should computedRole do that would require spinning up additional
accessibility code? Isn't it simply the first recognized token in the role
attribute, or the default role of the element failing that?

Is falling back to the default role of the element important? That detail
increases the amount of testing required by a lot, as it brings in
https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#wai-aria and any other vocabulary-specific
mapping tables.
