Re: What is the current situation with ARIA and accordion?

All,

Just to add some detail to Becky's description of dojo's 
AccordianContainer...

The keystrokes, as documented in the Book of Dojo [1], are:

Navigate to next title - Right or down arrow.
Navigate to previous title - Left or up arrow.
Navigate into page - Tab
Navigate to next page - Ctrl + page down, ctrl + tab (except IE7)
Navigate to previous page - Ctrl + page up.

Secondly, the ARIA @role that dojo assigns to the AccordianContainer is 
"tablist", the individual "titles" have @role "tab", and the contents of 
a tab is a "tabpanel".  In summary, as Becky wrote, the widget is 
implemented as a tab container.
