Comment:

 First pass patch.

 About the Media Library attachment thumbnails, I've tested a bit with
 Firefox + NVDA and Chrome + ChromeVox, adding `aria-hidden=true` to the
 thumbnail link hides everything for screen readers but the link is still
 focusable. All keyboard users will still be able to focus the thumbnail.
 NVDA gets a bit confused too and will read out "out of table, blank", a
 bit weird since it's still inside the table.
 At this point we should add `tabindex=-1` to the thumbnail link so it will
 be out of the tab order but honestly I'm not so sure about this and would
 like to hear the accessibility team opinion.
