+ A minimum role is the equivalent WAI-ARIA role an element will map to if the element does not have a more specific implicit role or platform role mappings, e.g., a non-generic + role. This can help ensure that users of assistive technologies get the best possible experience for commonly-used and valid HTML markup where otherwise a role would not be exposed. +
+A minimum role is provided when all of the following conditions are true:
++ The HTML Attribute State and Property Mappings section identifies the specific global attributes which would require an element map + to a minimum role. +
++ When these conditions are met, the browser MUST expose an object using the mappings defined in CORE-AAM for the specified minimum role. If the element has multiple attributes specified which + require a minimum role be returned as the computed role for the element, prioritize the more specific role in the ARIA taxonomy. +
