Investigate how Dragon Naturally Speaking recognizes UI elements; test with a modal close button

Problem/Motivation

Dragon Naturally Speaking does not recognize elements in the Drupal UI. This might be caused by the visually-hidden class. If the text isn't visible, maybe it also isn't available to voice control.

<a id="overlay-close" href="#" class="overlay-close" role="button" aria-controls="overlay-content"><span class="visually-hidden">Close overlay</span></a>

Proposed resolution

Someone with Dragon needs to troubleshoot these issue reported in Minnesota Accessibility studies.

Remaining tasks

We need to better understand how Dragon is interpreting the HTML and CSS in our code.

User interface changes

Unknown right now.

API changes

None.
