Comment:

 I think the best solution here is to be ahead of the curve and get better
 support for screen-readers into WordPress - leading in this area is
 something we should aspire to.

 Reading through the W3C docs it looks like they have identified the
 validation issue and are working on a solution - http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-
 aria-primer/#ariahtml

 I have opened a new ticket to track the validation issue - #6918
