Re: [HTML-AAM] Use of MSAA VARIANT by Some User Agents

Some history on that note: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=16769

Could be that Chrome has since dropped the BSTR hack. Would need to
test. A quick look shows that a blockquote element still gets exposed
by Chrome with MSAA accrole of "blockquote", although the q element
doesn't seem to get exposed similarly with "q". My quick look might
have been too quick, though.
