Description
From the JS, the developer has the choice to specify the accessibilityState prop. Then, they can specify any subset of 'busy', 'expanded', 'selected', 'disabled', and 'checked'.
In the JS `selected' can be undefined or a boolean value. However, once the data is passed to the native code, accessibilityState->selected always takes a boolean value. There is no way to determine in the native code if the user has not set the 'selected' state (i.e. the control does not have selectable behavior) or if they have set 'selected' to false (i.e. the control does have selectable behavior but it is not selected)
Could we change the 'selected' value in the accessibilityState to be an std::optional, so the 'undefined' state of selected could be preserved on the native side? This change is needed to implement correct accessibility behavior on Windows.
Steps to reproduce
Set a control to have accessibilityState={{}} and accessibilityState={{selected: false}}. Both show the same data for props->accessibilityState
