Comment:

 Taking into account some of the discussion here, I've provided an
 advancement on the existing patch. This patch:

 * Tries to remove any notion of 'short' vs. 'long' text and keeps it in
 the context of 'display on screen' vs 'present to screen readers'
 * Adds some escaping to the HTML that we return
 * Removes the $screen_reader_class as a parameter to be passed in and adds
 it as a parameter that can be filtered
 * Suggests yet another function name, removing references to
 'short','long' and 'a11y'
 * Includes PHP Doc in accordance with
 http://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/inline-documentation-standards
 /php-documentation-standards/

 I think it's important to be as broad as possible about what the function
 is doing. While it's a real solution to an a11y problem, the specifics of
 the function just provide the appropriate HTML to display one text string
 on the screen and another to screen readers.
