I added a general issue to cover this rather than one on this specific point, 
because I think there are many examples of this type of interaction that need to 
be sorted out (other obvious examples include aria-labelledby when used in 
conjunction with <label> and aria-describedby on table cells to establish cell 
headers). I think it would be easier to make a pass through aria trying to 
identify all the issues that need to be addressed instead of adding them 
piecemeal to the tracker.
