Hi Alex,

what about the object hierarchy? Should figcaption be the first child of a figure accessible similar to the caption element being the first child of a table accessible?

Hi. HTML 5 provides two new elements figure and figcaption that seems
to don't have a good way for IA2 mapping.

The proposal is:
1) introduce new IA2 role for figure element like IA2_ROLE_FIGURE
2) use IA2_ROLE_CAPTION for figcaption element
3) make figure and figcaption accessible objects related by label relations

I would love to hear your feedback.

Thank you.
