1688001 - Implement accessible alternative to open links in the console message.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(DevTools :: Console, task, P3)

Description

[Yura Zenevich [:yzen] (please use "needinfo")]

Right now there's no way to activate a link when in the message using the ctrl + click interaction. There is no easy way to trigger the context menu either (where this option is available).

This was identified in bug 1687736 where click interaction is performed on an element that is not accessible. You can run the test with accessibility checks when using --enable-a11y-checks.

The severity field for this bug is set to S3. However, the accessibility severity is higher, [access-s2].
:nchevobbe, could you consider increasing the severity?

Use a proper link element so it can be focused and clicked.
