Re: Open-UI popups

+1 Mateus, which, to close the loop, is why I suggested to Tzviya that
using a popup with actual linked @longdesc descriptions (files which could
be appended at the "end" of a digital collection) might address that
concern.

(That, or a mechanism riffing off of Dirk's example - there is a WordPress
plugin which also echoes that treatment. See:
https://www.joedolson.com/2014/03/update-wp-accessibility-longdesc/)
