A
<select multiple>
is exposed differently, e.g. as a listbox.In addition, since a
<select>
stands on its own and includes<optgroup>
and<option>
elements, it is important to consider how those are exposed as well.But, before we worry about a11y mappings we need to talk about
#113
If we implement that, we may need to prototype changes to how options are exposed, and/or work with screen reader vendors, so that it's clear to uses the option works like a checkbox, and space can toggle.
