AT is not informed of dynamic style and language changes

Project Member Reported by nek...@chromium.org, Nov 13

Issue description

An assistive technology relies on events to be told when the style or the language of a piece of text changes. Currently, we don't fire the appropriate events for each platform, so if only the style or language changes, but not the actual text, a screen reader for example will still announce the old style / language.

 
Hi Nektarios, can you provide steps for reproducing the issue where the screen reader announces the old style/language?
data:text/html,
<p style="color: red">
It's green if you are a new user.
</p>
<script>
if (firstTimeUser)
  document.querySelector('p').style.color = 'green';
</script>

Paste the above snippet in the address bar. Press JawsKey+5 to read the foreground color.
Expected value: green
Actual value: red.
