We want a easy way (role none/presentation) for authors to ensure an element is not included in the accessibility tree. Things that appear to conflict: action listeners, presence of global aria properties. If role none/presentation always exclude an element from inclusion in the accessibility tree, we need normative text stating so. Git Issue #136   https://github.com/w3c/aria/issues/136
