…can leverage that markup if it gets passed in to the component.

The spec you linked mentions the same element should also have 'role' defined (or implicitly defined) but I don't see it explicitly defined in the button output. Is it implicitly defined? I'm curious what an audit tool would say, have you run one? Thanks |

SplitButtons have role="button" or role="menuitem" depending on their context |

Do you know why it wouldn't appear in the snapshot output? That's odd... |

Sorry. I swear I expanded all of the output. |

Pull request checklist
$ npm run changeDescription of changes
With aria 1.1 there's an aria-roledescription (see: https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.1/#aria-roledescription) which is there to help the user understand what a component is. Buttons (and any other componet that uses htmlProperties) can use it. The splitButton is built up slightly differently and needs it explicitly defined.
There's no harm if the attribute is not there and there's no harm if a screen reader does not read that content, it just gives the user a better chance to understand the components if an AT conveys that information
Focus areas to test
Verified that splitButtons top level and within menus can now get aria-roledescription and it reads out great in Edge/Narrator. Verified that not having the attribute does nothing and that normal buttons can also define this property if they so choose.
