It's not your imagination. This non-reciprocal relationship occurs in
a few other places as well. The one I can think of off-hand is Finder
windows in the latest public release of Panther. In a Finder window in
icon mode, the contents of the window are in an AXSplitGroup. A child
of that AXSplitGroup is an AXScrollArea. A child of that AXScrollArea
is an AXGroup. The parent of the AXGroup is the AXSplitGroup.

In the current version of Safari, it appears that the AXParent
attribute of
any text field in a Web page is the AXScrollArea element of the main
Web
page view area. However, the AXChildren of the AXScrollArea element
are an
AXScrollBar element and an AXGroup element. The text field is a child
of the
AXGroup element.
Buttons, static text, and other elements don't exhibit this problem --
they
show the AXGroup as their AXParent.
I see this both in UI Element Inspector and PreFab UI Browser.
Can somebody confirm this?
