Re: known VO bug re radio buttons?

With iOS I do not experience this for radio buttons grouped using
fieldset-legend or role=group or role=radiogroup.
For the first two see:
http://mars.dequecloud.com/demo/aria-group.htm
For role=radiogroup, see:
http://mars.dequecloud.com/demo/form-markup.htm#tech7

When the above methods are used to group radio buttons / checkboxes,
a list may not be needed as a container IMO.
Thanks,
Sailesh Panchang
