Consider adding DOMStringMap Element.ariaset (to match Element.dataset for data-* attrs)

Description:

Considering adding DOMStringMap Element.ariaset to 1.1 or 2.0 (to match Element.dataset for data-* attrs)

HTML5 defines Element.dataset. For example, you can access data-* attrs:

<div data-foo="foo" data-bar="bar"></div>

Either by the standard getAttribute method:

var value = myDiv.getAttribute('data-foo');

Or by the dataset property:

var value = myDiv.dataset.foo;

It would be convenient to use a similar construct for aria-* attrs:

var invalid = myDiv.ariaset.invalid;
