--------------------------------------+-----------------------------
 When adding content to a site running WordPress 5.6.2, unable to edit
 blocks after they've been inserted. Specifically, content within blocks.
 This has been tested using Jaws for Windows version 2021, 2020, and 2019,
 NVDA version 2020.4, latest version of Microsoft Narrator which ships with
 Windows 10, Firefox 86.0 and Chrome 88. Steps to reproduce: Go to the "new
 post", "new page", or "edit post" and "edit page" screens. Insert some
 blocks, or try to edit blocks that are already there. When attempting to
 edit by moving around with a keyboard, Jaws and NVDA say nothing at all,
 and text is not edited. It's as if there's no field when in forms/browse
 mode. Narrator reports that there is no text to be selected.
