#3023 fixed handling of ARIA tree controls in browse mode that so that just the container is rendered, not its descendants. However, this only works when the tree itself is focusable. From what I can see, the ARIA spec doesn't specifically say trees have to be focusable. This seems odd to me, but unless I can find evidence otherwise in the spec, that's what we have ot deal with.
The only realistic solution I can think of is to walk through the entire tree to find the currently focused item when you press enter on the tree, which is pretty slow and ugly.
