Comment (by afercia):
@azaozz when you have a chance: does this still needs to be addressed
upstream?
In languages other than English, the mismatch between the translated
tooltip and the not-translated aria-label is a serious accessibility
issue. The buttons accessible name is given by the aria-label.
For example, speech input users who set the user language to something
other than English will try to voice a command in that language, according
to what the tooltip displays. However, the real controls name is in
English. In Italian, for example, users would try to voice a command like
"Clicca grassetto": this wouldn't do anything because the button name is
still "Bold".
