Description

For some use cases of the monaco editor, the editor's input area is a required property (for example, if the user must input a SQL query to fetch results). Currently the monaco editor doesn't expose a way to set the required or aria-required HTML property on the textarea element, which is an accessibility requirement for these use cases.

(This came up in an accessibility pass and @isidorn asked me to file a feature request here.)

You can now set ariaRequired: true in the editor options. FYI @isidorn

@hediet awesome! Should we go ahead and close this then?

It will be closed automatically once the implementing PR gets merged. Somehow the build timed out Friday.
