Certain members of AccessText should be public

Certain members of AccessText should be public to enable people to write better code by avoiding code copies or usage of reflection.
The members in AccessText especially affect custom automation peers for button like controls.

Members that should be public:

• AccessKeyMarker => this would avoid the need to hard code "_"
• RemoveAccessKeyMarker => this avoid the need to write custom code to achieve the same

Original question/request:

Currently AccessText.RemoveAccessKeyMarker is marked as internal.
To be able to write AutomationPeer classes of the same quality as the included ones, AccessText.RemoveAccessKeyMarker should be public.

To be honest, i think that all classes/methods used to write controls/automation peers should be public and not internal.

Thinking further about this:
Should we create a list of things that should be public instead of internal?

Should we create a list of things that should be public instead of internal?

Probably not, since they likely need separate discussions and won't be made public all at the same time they should live in distinct issues not in a single list

You are right.
I changed the title and content and will create separate issues for other areas/classes.
