The ATK/AT-SPI role for "a space to draw in" is ROLE_CANVAS, not
ROLE_PANEL. ROLE_CANVAS is documented as " Object that can be drawn
into and is used to trap events." [1]
The characteristics table for role group lists html <fieldset> as a
related concept. The html-aam maps <fieldset> to ROLE_PANEL. [2]
