Dropdown accessibility improvements

Open desig9stein opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Description

The screen reader does not read any of the items inside the dropdown.

Still reproducible: When you open the dropdown, it reads all the item values, including the headers if available. However, it doesn't tell you which item is selected or which one you are currently on.

@desig9stein Seems this issue cannot be fixed until there is some mechanism that allows us to reflect the aria-related attributes from within the shadow DOM into the light DOM.

There are several ongoing proposals for how this can be resolved, but I believe the latest one can be found here.
