I had a long <strike>rant</strike> chat today with the ATK maintainer about this. We looked at all the roles that would work and none seemed to fit. So we concluded that providing a clearly-defined and documented new role would be the way to go. I opened a bug against ATK [1] and have a proposed patch [2]. Piñeiro's gone for the day, but hopefully he'll review it tomorrow. In the meantime, as an implementor, please let me know what you think -- preferably by commenting on the bug. Thanks! --joanie P.S. Piñeiro and I also talked about how much the ATK documentation sucks regarding other text roles. That's next on my hit list. ;) [1] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=739981 [2] https://bug739981.bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=290435
