Which ARIA roles is it using? The term ARIA live region is ambiguous since
it can apply to many different types of ARIA implementations.

For instance, I use ARIA to make the live chat demo at
http://whatsock.com/modules/accessible_chat_dialog_module/demo.htm
accessible for screen reader users, but it doesn't use the expected ARIA
role=log which I've found to be buggy.

I'm working with Freedom Scientific on a known bug regarding how live
regions are being read especially regarding live chats. The live chat that
I discovered this one is an internal live chat window here at Oracle. Is
anyone aware of an external live chat that uses Aria live region so that I
can try and reproduce this for FS?
