Comment:

 In [changeset:"36222"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="36222"
 Accessibility: remove the title attribute from the `get_search_form()`
 HTML5 search field.

 It was added in [23801] as a workaround for issues with very old
 browser/screen reader combos (Jaws7/IE6).
 No more necessary today. Reduces redundancy and noise for screen reader
 users.

 See #16539.
 Fixes #33952.
 }}}
