Re: CFC - WCAG 2.2 Focus Not Obscured (Minimum + Enhanced)

Hey Alastair,
I just spotted something that I dhttps://deque.com/on't believe the group
has discussed. Many websites these days have a cookie banner. These are
pretty much always banners that are sticky at the bottom of the page, thus
when you tab through the page the focus indicator is almost inevitably
obscured somewhere by that cookie banner until it is dismissed. Looking at
a few random sites, it's almost hard to find sites that don't have this.
Should the SC have an exception for when the obscuring content can be
dismissed?
