Seems to me like this is just an implementation detail rather than a problem with the spec. UAs and ATs could provide label information for landmarks, in addition to the localized name for the role. In other words, the markup below would… er, could… result in the following landmark list: 1. Navigation: Main Menu 2. Navigation: Secondary Navigation <div role="navigation" aria-labelledby="main_nav"> <h1 id="main_nav">Main Menu</a> … </div> <div role="navigation" aria-label="Secondary Navigation"> … </div>
