Risk Assessment
What approach did you choose and why?
I am adding a live region to the ClipboardCopy button so that, by default, screen reader feedback will be announced.
I considered adding a live region to the
clipboard-copy-elementweb component which is used under the hood, but changing that component to include a live region would be a breaking change since we'd need to wrap the current inner text with another element so that we can have a live region as a sibling. Nesting a live region inside of a<button>element has poor support and is not recommended.Anything you want to highlight for special attention from reviewers?
parentNodeof thetargetelement to target the specific aria-live region for one component (thinking if there are multiple ClipboardCopy elements on the page and not wanting them to conflict)? I didn't want to change the API too much by making the wrapper I added the new<clipboard-copy>component but maybe it's ok?Merge checklist
