We do not use camel case for aria-activedescendant, and activedescendant
is longer than youarehere (16 vs 10 char); only 3 char more than
"current".
I was joking in response to your aria-here thought, but you are right that
it carries the semantics better than anything else we are discussing.
Maybe it should be seriously considered as an option.

Well, it *does* express the meaning :-). However, it's arguably too long,
and visually requires the camel case -- compare aria-youarehere (all lower
case).
