Re: hit testing and retained graphics

You are correct: IE9 introduced support for Canvas and the sub-tree 
(with drawFocusRing).

IE8 introduced support for WAI-ARIA.

You may view a page as it would render in IE7 and IE8 by using IE9s F12 
Developer Tools
and changing the compatibility view mode.
