What
Why
We've had a few conversations recently where it's been difficult to make decisions on styling focus states. There's a risk that without establishing some guides for ourselves, things will start getting more and more inconsistent.
There are also some changes to the focus guidelines in WCAG 2.2, so we need to make sure everything we do meets those standards (there's a conversation to be had about how realistic it is to meet AAA at this point). Some of that work is already in progress.
We have some existing guidance on styling focus states, but it's not comprehensive. Longer term, we could amend and add to this, but I see this as an internal-facing thing for now.
We started some very similar work in #1853, we'll be picking up where that left off so may want to close that issue (cc @CharlotteDowns?).
