Red flag for Views Bulk Operations column header

Summarizing notes from Slack conversation --

VBO does an odd thing where it has an unlabelled checkbox with a title attribute as a pseudo-label. This is...not a best practice...but is technically permitted under the accessible name computation. So this is a false positive; the VBO markup is OK.

The challenge here is that the accessible name computation has a lot of steps, and running it all on every element on a page would introduce jank, so Editoria11y and Sa11y only run a subset of its possibilities, based on what is generally possible to create in CKEditor and Gutenberg.

I need to ponder this for a bit and decide whether it makes more sense to add this to our computation, or just add default config to automatically ignore VBO tables. I have seen a similar issue in some Webform tables.

For the moment, users can add VBO table classes to their Editoria11y config for elements to ignore. Editoria11y is only testing tables for headings and headers, so this is unlikely to create any false negatives.

Fixed in 2.2.9 → .

I have confirmed that updating to 2.2.9 fixes this issue.
