Description
waiRole and waiState were originally used in the templates because additional work was needed to add a namespace to these values for Firefox 2. Since we are no longer supporting Firefox 2, we can replace waiRole and waiState with the role and state attributes.
I need to better understand how the attributeList works for the widgets as there are dozens of potential aria- properties that should be supported in the templates.

Assuming this is done in or before 2.0, in 2.0 we can remove the waiRole and waiState processing from _Templated. So I'm gonna mark this as 2.0 meaning "in or before 2.0".

I'm going to put this into 1.6 as it's somewhat related to the performance fixes for IE. We'll remove waiRole and waiState support from _Templated in 2.0.

So, attributeList isn't an issue for the templates. Any attribute added to the template will be included in the widget.
