> If a non-functional iFrame were given a role of "presentation" would that hide its existence from screenreaders?
The role of presentation is meant to hide the semantics of the element and any required descendant elements not hide the contents of the frame. So, while this might work for frames with no visible content aria-hidden might be a more appropriate attribute. Also iframes may be placed in the focus order by the browser so non-interactive frames may use tabindex=-1. However, be careful about applying tabindex=-1 to frames -- when a frame does contain interactive content applying this will prevent keyboard access into the interactive controls within the frame.
