Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 actually, it looks like touch screen users are already addressed because
 the quicklinks show up when i tested. just have to make sure i don;t break
 that; will try an off screen link to toggle class.

 Focus can be given to the item in javascript too.

 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.
