Thanks Jamie, It appears there is not strong preference by anyone for
any of the various options. Your observation about state vs
relationship is interesting and is enough to motivate me to choose a
method over a relation.
Does anyone have any preference regarding whether the anchorTarget
method should reside in IAccessible2_2 or IAccessibleDocument. The
latter would be a new interface with one method.
