[Accessibility-ia2] [Accessibility] new scroll type?

How about  a IA2_SCROLL_TYPE_BUBBLE?

What I would want this to do, is to scroll the the object into view, and 
also its parent container, and its parent container, and so on, so that 
as much context around the original object is brought into view as well.

Ideally I would want a flag to say whether to scroll (or not) if the 
object was already in view; barring that maybe two constants:

IA2_SCROLL_TYPE_BUBBLE
IA2_SCROLL_TYPE_BUBBLE_ONLY_IF_NECESSARY

I'd find the latter one most valuable I think.

cheers,
David


Seriously though, what about this:
