Comment (by afercia):

 Re: `aria-controls`, there's an important update. See this quick note by
 Steve Faulkner:
 https://twitter.com/stevefaulkner/status/1138834162562019328

 > "If you encounter an element on a web page with a defined aria controls
 relationship, JAWS will no longer say "use JAWSKEY+ALT+M to move to
 controlled element" by default."

 JAWS 2019 release notes:
 https://support.freedomscientific.com/Downloads/JAWS/JAWSWhatsNew

 JAWS was the only known assistive tech to support aria-controls. Not to
 mention [https://www.heydonworks.com/article/aria-controls-is-poop the
 actual usefulness of aria-controls was previously argued for good
 reasons].
