STR (with a screen reader):

  1. Ensure Quantumbar is enabled.
  2. Type "test" into the address bar.
  3. Press down arrow. Observe that the screen reader reports the autocomplete list item.
  4. Press left arrow.
    • Expected: The screen reader should report focus on the address bar input.
    • Actual: Nothing is reported.
  5. Press left arrow again.
    • Expected: The screen reader should report the character to which the caret moved.
    • Actual: Nothing is reported.

This makes it difficult for a screen reader user to edit the content in the address bar. This is a regression from the current (non-Quantumbar) address bar implementation.

I assume we need this for Home and End too.
