Is the suggestion to change that to IA2_ROLE_LANDMARK + xml-roles:"form"? If so, are the other platforms affected? I imagine for interoperability, you would want ATK/AT-SPI to change from ROLE_FORM to ROLE_LANDMARK. UIA seems to have it covered, in that they store both a Control type (Group) and a Landmark Type (form) -- does that remain unchanged?
