Comment:

 In [changeset:"44793" 44793]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="44793"
 Accessibility: Hide the Toolbar sub-menu CSS generated icons from
 assistive technologies.

 CSS generated content is rendered for speech output. When it's not meant
 to be announced by assistive technologies, for example with font icons,
 special care should be used to hide it. At the moment, the only reliable
 way to do this is making use of a wrapper element and set `aria-
 hidden="true"` on it.

 Fixes #37513.
