Scroll bar title bug?
Scroll bar title bug?

When I use the AXUIElementCopyAttributeNames function to get a list of all
the attributes of a scroll bar in a Carbon application, the resulting array
does NOT include "AXTitle". However, when I use the
AXUIElementCopyAttributeValue function to get the value of a
kAXTitleAttribute attribute for that same scroll bar, I get a valid result
-- "vertical scroll bar" or "horizontal scroll bar".
You can see this in the Finder and Internet Explorer, for example.
This would appear to be a bug in the AXUIElementCopyAttributeNames function.
Can somebody tell me whether this is specific to scroll bars and their
AXTitle attribute, or is it indicative of some broader problem that will
require a more extensive workaround?
(With Cocoa applications, it appears that scroll bars actually don't have
AXTitle attributes.)
