Re: SC proposal regarding icon description for COGA

Hi Katie

>  Is there a way technically today, or in the foreseeable future (such as
via quasi-IndieUI and/or AOM event/actions), that would allow for
touch/gesture/voice expansion of icons to reveal the text description for
icons?

I don't know. I know that I've filed a bug against Chrome to ensure that
the Title attribute becomes visible on tab focus. It is currently in cue to
be addressed by the Chrome accessibility team.
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=829352&can=2&q=os%3Dchrome

To me, once that bug gets fixed it would be the easiest way to meet this SC.

Cheers,
David MacDonald
