Comment (by joedolson):

 I'm hugely pro the "making the badge titles visible text" option. I think
 that would make them easier for everybody.

 If that's not an option, adding screen reader text would be helpful. It
 still leaves out the keyboard-dependent sighted users, but it would be an
 improvement.

 I'd suggest using the clip property to handle screen reader hidden text,
 like in WP core, so that it gets support for RTL automatically.


 {{{
 .screen-reader-text {
     position: absolute!important;
     clip: rect(1px,1px,1px,1px);
     overflow: hidden;
     width: 1px;
     height: 1px;
 }
 }}}
