I don't like this approach at all. The first step should be to apply the
correct semantic structure (fieldset, legend etc) and then use ARIA if the
content is not accessible for some reason.
I also disagree with the assertion that "group/radiogroup are better
supported across browsers and screen readers than fieldset/legend". That
may be the case for new browsers and AT versions (although that sounds
improbable) but it is definitely not the case for older versions. And I am
talking about versions that are only 3 or 4 years old and still in
widespread use.
