This change shouldn't need to be made. aria-hidden is not needed to prevent keyboard focus for IE. I mentioned this in the issue filed as well. The primary issue that was being run into before was that focusable="false" was getting stripped, which was fixed in a newer version of react-dates. In that issue, you found that upgrading did in fact no longer strip the focusable attribute, which should address your issue.
