"several screen readers will speak content that is created this way. VoiceOver does (in both OS X and iOS). NVDA does when used with Firefox, though not with IE."
"The roles “group” and “radiogroup” are well supported and may be used to group form controls in situations where one might use HTML’s fieldset – legend elements. It is advisable to include some visual cue via CSS to convey grouping too."
