Comment (by roytanck):
Hi @ryokuhi. Thank you for looking into this. My primary reason for
reporting this was because it came up during an accessibility audit of one
of my client's websites. My own experience with assistive technologies is
very limited.
While testing the patch I submitted, we contacted the original tester, and
they indicated that their initial finding may have been in error. Since
the page is refreshed (change of context), adding role attributes is
likely not necessary. The messages are part of the page's content, and
therefore read by the screen reader software they used.
Feel free to close this ticket, or expand its scope as you see fit.
