 Replying to [comment:10 SergeyBiryukov]:
 > What's the purpose of the `aria-hidden="true"` attribute for the `<span
 class="ab-icon">` element here? Looks like it's the first instance of
 using it in the toolbar.

 Just did some more testing, aria-hidden can be safely omitted here. The
 icon is not inserted using a symbol font or other method that's visible to
 a screenreader, so no need to hide anything.
