Comment (by michaelarestad):

 I think the abbreviation in some situations (like UTC) is helpful when we
 refer to those time zones. What specifically is the a11y issue we're
 solving? Without knowing that, my gut reaction is to use something like
 the `abbr` element with the `title` being the definition (which I think is
 what it currently is).

 @hugobaeta
 I would avoid any ? bubbles if we can. I'm not sure we want to introduce
 that into WordPress.
