Comment (by afercia):

 Tested a bit more, there is one thing still to address for better
 accessibility. Focus needs to be moved back to the toggle button even when
 pressing the "Cancel" button and the form closes.

 I've made a few seconds video to clarify what happens, and I'd recommend
 everyone to have a look at it to better understand why, as accessibility
 people, we always insist on focus management :)

 After pressing "Cancel" and using Control-Option-Right arrow as screen
 reader users normally do to navigate content instead of using Tab, there's
 a very evident focus loss: all the events list get skipped. See:

 This can be fixed very easily, the most important things is everyone
 starts considering this kind of issues, especially now that  WordPress is
 starting to move towards JavaScript-based user interfaces.
