I think it's still appropriate for HTML5 to say that foo in HTML5 has to be
mapped to the same accessible role as ARIA role bar even we want there to be an
ARIA to accessibility API spec and an HTML to accessibility API spec.

Or do you want some HTML stuff to use accessibility API roles that are more
refined than what ARIA maps to?
