Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ldtp

The way objects are arranged in the AT-SPI layer is very hierarchical.

It makes little sense that only context objects have a getchild method. It
would be very useful if component also had this method.

It will improve a lot the way objects can be recognized. In example, if there
are two text field without name (txt0 and txt1), and one is a child of a tab
page that do have a name, the hierarchy can be used to select the correct text
field.

This can be workaround using getobjectproperty(context, component, 'children'),
but having getchild method will improve a lot the OO structure of the script
and will allow to search the child by role.
