"clickable" reported 3x

Project Member Reported by chaok@google.com, Jan 9 2017

Issue description

Chrome version: 57.0.2976.0 canary (64-bit).
OS: Win10
Screen reader: NVDA 2016.4

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Using above combo
(2) Go to Gmail. Open a thread. Z
(3) Go to Gmail. Open a thread. Switch to browse mode and press H to go to next heading. 

What is the expected result?
Chrome to not report clickable (similar to what happens when turning this off in NVDA > Preferences > Document formatting > Clickable) 

What happens instead?
NVDA reads at least 3 "clickable" before reading the heading text. Probably there are far too many onclick events but it gets real annoying.

NVDA logs:
IO - inputCore.InputManager.executeGesture (11:24:02):
Input: kb(laptop):h
IO - speech.speak (11:24:02):

Per Drew:
"I'm still hearing a lot of "clickable" links/text that isn't actually clickable, as well as the inverse: clickable text not marked as clickable (and thus not actionable."

Status: Fixed (was: Assigned)
We modified our accessibility API to report "clickable" only when  there is a click handler on the current element without taking into consideration its ancestors in the DOM. I believe we did everything we could from Chrome's side and it's up to the screen reader to decide how and when to report the provided information.
