I believe one of the original proposals too was to allow the use of aria-controls as well in special cases when an explicit association is needed, such as when a text field is focused and includes role=combobox, but references another node such as role=option via aria-activedescendant. Currently the only option listed in this section is the use of aria-owns, which is problematic in this case. -----Original Message----- From: Joseph Scheuhammer [mailto:clown@alum.mit.edu] Sent: Thursday, April 28, 2016 6:43 AM To: Rich Schwerdtfeger <richschwer@gmail.com>; ARIA Working Group <public-aria@w3.org> Subject: Re: Agenda: April 28, 2016 WAI-ARIA Working Group On 2016-04-26 10:31 AM, Rich Schwerdtfeger wrote: > Agenda: April 28, 2016 WAI-ARIA Working Group > > ... > 3.
