 It does not appear in the natural tab order within a page.

 text class?) instead of hiding them. That way they will always be
 "visible" for screen readers. Then we can negate `screen-reader-text` on
 hover and show them same as now.

 great idea, i think i will try combining this with the show/hide approach
 so touch screen users can still use the links.
