Issue with ARIA 1.1 and supported roles for aria-setsize and aria-posinset?

Hi,
I had a question today from someone asking about menus and the validity of aria-setsize and aria-posinset, and I believe this was slated for 1.1 but doesn't appear to have been added in the spec.
E.G
http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.1/#aria-setsize
and
http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.1/#aria-posinset

Which only states the following as being supported:
listitem
option
radio
tab

There is value in providing the same functionality for menus, especially when due to the nesting structure these values are not reported reliably by ATs.

Can these attributes please be added for the roles menuitem menuitemcheckbox and menuitemradio as well?
