See #16863.
The issue seems to be present on MacOS as well: wxStyledTextCtrl isn't detected by voiceover.
I'm using wxWidgets v3.3.2, a port of wx cocoa.
Any ideas?

Unfortunately I don't know much about accessibility under macOS so we would need help with fixing this.

I suppose the NSAccessibility functions will need to be implemented somewhere, but I have no idea where (PlatWXcocoa.mm?) and how.
Similar to what Scite does (from line 988): https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/code/ci/default/tree/cocoa/ScintillaView.mm
