Comment:
Noticed a couple things:
1
The Credits, Freedoms, and Privacy pages need to be changed as well.
2
When there are multiple `<nav>` elements in a page (and there are already
the toolbar and the admin menu), the navigation landmark need to be
disambiguated otherwise assistive technologies users won't have a clue
what a specific navigation is about (see attached screenshot below). All
the new `<nav>` elements need an `aria-label` attribute with a meaningful
name. Please avoid the word "navigation" as that's already automatically
announced by screen readers as the element's role.
