 Replying to [comment:7 joedolson]:
 > In the accessibility bug scrub, we discussed this issue, and it's a bit
 more complicated than it first appears.

 > In this state, the 'Remove Selected Items' is a disabled control, and
 needs to look inactive, so that users know that it's not something they
 can interact with. This is also an exemption for color contrast, since an
 inactive control, in theory, is not necessary for interaction.

 > It may be preferable to have the Remove Selected Items control not be
 visible at all when it isn't available; it's unclear that there's any
 benefit to being able to interact or perceive a control when it would not
 do anything.

 Thank you for reviewing!

 That makes sense, to not display the button at all. What is the preferred
 way to not display it? Adding `display:none;` to the disabled class, or is
 there a better solution used in core elsewhere?
