If we use `new AccessibleRole("AXLink") {}`, then VoiceOver reads this more like other native apps.
There isn't a similar precedent in CAccessibility for creating custom AccessibleRoles, so I won't mind if this PR is declined. (But I don't know off the top of my head where else to inject code to get the desired result...)
