Description Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2013-11-18 11:17:17 UTC 
We have:
* ATK_STATE_EXPANDABLE and ATK_STATE_EXPANDED
* ATK_STATE_FOCUSABLE and ATK_STATE_FOCUSED
* ATK_STATE_SELECTABLE and ATK_STATE_SELECTED
* ATK_STATE_CHECKED

Without ATK_STATE_CHECKABLE, ATs must infer/guess that something is checkable. In the case of checkboxes, it's pretty obvious. But we see things like toggleable table cells and have to take extra steps to identify that the table cell is functionally a checkbox.
Comment 1 Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2013-11-18 12:16:47 UTC 
Proposed documentation:

Indicates this object has the potential to be checked, such as a checkbox or toggle-able table cell.
