The resolution states:
Where an element has role=none or role=presentation and has a
descendent title or desc element, user agents must ignore the role.
Descendant is not the same as "child." And the language for inclusion
found at
https://rawgit.com/w3c/aria/master/svg-aam/svg-aam.html#include_elements
specifically states "child." Is the language in the resolution accurate,
or is it limited to immediate children?
Thanks!
