Comment:

 Refreshed patch. Please notice the tags box should be tested also in Press
 This.
 - the remove tag links are now buttons
 - they use the circular focus style (see screenshot below)
 - they use a screen reader text "Remove item:" + tagname
 - `wp.a11y.speak()` is used to give feedback to screen reader users when
 adding/removing tags

 Note: tags can be also custom taxonomies terms so the strings can't refer
 to "tags" but they should use a generic wording. Alternatively, new
 taxonomy labels should be introduced and there should be a way to pass
 them to the JS part. I've opted to keep things simple and use "item". Any
 feedback welcome.
