> We could add the H1 to the site name in the admin bar
That wouldn't be a good use of H1, the site name information is already
available in the `<title>` tag. The H1 should reflect the main topic of
each specific screen so if you're in the Media Library it should have as
text "Media Library" and so on. Users need to know where they are as first
thing. That's not just for "abstract" compliance with the specs, it's what
users actually use to navigate the page, see what's the first thing screen
reader users do to find information in a page:

Accessibility. Trac maybe is not the best place to have long conversations
about semantics.
