Steps to reproduce:
On a webpage (e.g. this GitHub page), press NVDA+F one ore two times.
Actual behavior:
"Baseline" is reported in the formatting information.
Expected behavior:
"Baseline" should not be reported when fetching formatting info with NVDA+F, since this is the default formatting regarding text position (superscript, subscript, baseline).
Indeed, in this case, we already do not report "Not bold" or "Not underlined" since this is considered the default formatting.
"Baseline" formatting should just be reported when "Superscript and subscript" formatting option is enabled and when you arrow from a superscript or subscript to a baseline text.
Note
This issue occurs on Firefox, but also in IE (also in Edge if I remember well).
But not in MS Word (legacy), nor in Wordpad (and neither in Chrome if I remember well)
!technical
According to the application / control type, the "text-info" attribute that is provided to speech.getFormatFieldSpeech may be "auto", "baselin", "middle"; in this case, "Baseline" is reported. Or no "text-position" attribute is provided at all; in this case, "Baseline" is not reported when pressing NVDA+F.
