 All bundled themes have now their CSS `.screen-reader-text` rules defined
 but they're different from the one recommended in the Codex and they also
 won't cover edge cases.

 The rule used in core, which is very similar to the one now recommended in
 the Codex, tries to cover also edge cases, and for some good reasons, see
 for example r26602.

 Please consider to update all bundled themes with the officially
 recommended rule, see:
