Bugzilla

I understand why this has been marked as an enhancement. It's technically not a "bug" in that this is just not something we support yet. However, I think it's important to note that this disproportionately impacts screen reader users (and potentially users of other assistive technology such as voice control) because there are often icons/images where the purpose is clear visually and translation isn't required, but the only exposure to accessibility tools is the alt text, aria-label, etc., making the control effectively unintelligible to those users. This will be treated as a defect to those users, even if we don't see it that way from an engineering standpoint.
