      The following a11y properties on Node are inconsistently named.


      AccessibleRole role
      String roleDescription

      Further the name "role" is generic enough as to be likely to conflict with user-defined subclasses. Such a conflict is easy to resolve, but is a bother for application developers.

      We plan to change these to:

      AccessibleRole accessibleRole
      String accessibleRoleDescription
