Comment (by mikecorkum):

 I added the the role attribute to all values. This seems a little
 ridiculous but but according to
 [http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/dom.html#wai-aria W3C
 Section 3.2.7.1] any HTML element should be able to use role. Perhaps this
 isn't realistic, and we should just apply it to the elements that commonly
 have a role defined. Thoughts?
