 Hi,

 In the comment template, for the "Logged in as" link, there is an
 accessibility problem for speech-input users (WCAG failure to
 [https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Understanding/label-in-name.html "Label in
 name"] criterion).

 Actually, in English, we have two strings:

 - Logged in as %s. Edit your profile.
 - {{{<a href="%1$s" aria-label="%2$s">Logged in as %3$s</a>. <a
 href="%4$s">Log out?</a>}}}

 But, in the French translation (and I think the error may be present in
 other translations too), we have this:

 {{{
 <a href="/wp-admin/profile.php" aria-label="Connexion en tant que pseudo.
 Modifier votre profil.">Connecté en tant que pseudo</a>
 }}}

 The aria-label is different from the visible text and is using different
 translations for "Logged in" ("Connexion" and "Connecté") while it
 **must** be the same.

 I think it's not really a translation problem. I think that, by
 development, we should take the visible text string and put it into the
 aria-label string to translate it only once and prevent errors.
