Bug Description
Here is a WAI-ARIA grid
<!-- test.html -->
<title>Test</title>
<div role="grid">
<div role="row">
<span role="gridcell"><a href="#">First</a> table cell</span>
</div>
<div role="row">
<span role="gridcell"
</div>
</div>
<!-- end test.html -->
1. Open this file in firefox, with the Orca screen reader enabled.
2. Press t to jump to the top of the table.
3. Press alt+shift+down to move down one cell.
You hear "blank, row two column one". "blank" meaning "empty".
Expected result: Orca should read the text in the table cell; in this case, "Second table cell, row two column one".
It's probably a firefox bug, but I don't know how to find out (other than digging into the code).
