I can't comment on the intention of ARIA in general, or of its role in the
spec. 

I can say that anchors and images are given the @draggable attribute by
default. The ARIA link and img roles are used by developers to represent links
(anchors) and images, where native markup is not sufficient. I expect that
role="link" and role="img" map to <a> and <img> respectively, in the a11y API
mapping. Therefore, I think that we should provide, by default, the @draggable
attribute for these roles, in the same way that @draggable is applied by
default to <a> and <img>.
