Comment:

 Discussed during today's accessibility bug scrub and agreed to close this
 ticket because "static" notifications rendered on page load won't benefit
 from an ARIA alert or status role.

 Also, agreed to create a new ticket to address all the "dynamic"
 notifications, that is the ones that are rendered in the DOM "on the fly"
 and do need ARIA roles.
