Comment (by afercia):

 In [changeset:"35947"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="35947"
 Accessibility: Add an ARIA role `button` to links that behave like buttons
 when JavaScript is on.

 Introduces a simple way to give a proper semantics of `button` to links
 that behave
 like UI controls when JavaScript is on and behave like actual links when
 JavaScript
 is off. First implementation on the Terms list table.

 Patch prepared during WordCamp US 2015 Contributor Day.

 Props mcapybara, garusky, takayukister.

 See #26504.
 Fixes #34867.
