  • The reader says "not bookmarked button" and "is bookmarked button" for the bookmark button but simply "button" for all the other buttons:
    • Backward
    • Forward
    • Refresh
    • Hamburger
      not distinguishing between them. Do we want them to have unique identifiers?
  • The reader doesn't say anything for the two brackets used in the keyboard shortcuts for forward / backward. Ctrl + ] / Ctrl + [ - it just reads "control plus" and "control plus".
  • Reader seems to read onscreen text fine.
