Comment(by hakre):

 I've updated the patch and inserted ''label'' elements where I was able
 to. Missing translations tagged with {{{__TODO__}}}. In some/many places I
 was not able to create ''label'' elements because of missing function
 descriptions / docblocks. I will try to find out the places in the backend
 und extend the patch in a second iteration.

 Then I do not really know, what to write. For example, if there is a
 checkbox, do I use the label 'Select Media-File' for the checkbox to
 select a Mediafile in the listing or do you use just plain 'Media-File'
 because the screenreader is aware that this is a checkbox? Woudln't it be
 more useable if the name of the concrete file is given or the numerical
 ID? This is interesting for all the places in the Backend where you have
 got tables and the ability to select multiple items to perform bluk
 actions.

 Feedback and Help appreciated. This is my last patch for today for this
 ticket.

 Additionally this patch includes changes due to the new ''invisible''
 classname.
