I connected on a forum post with a user who is improving accessibility for screen reader users (Screen readers are software programs that allow blind or visually impaired users to read the text that is displayed on the computer screen with a speech synthesizer or braille display)
Our wrapper does not provide a much needed Title for screen readers to recognize valuable content. The user posted a good link to the requirement https://dequeuniversity.com/tips/provide-iframe-titles
We do provide
"Link Title Attribute: An optional, custom description for the title attribute of the menu hyperlink"
but that does not provide a readable title for screen readers
I request to add this in the wrapper menu link so we can enhance access for this group of impaired users

@tonypartridge Yep you are missing it indeed ;-) new menu link --> type wrapper (=iframe)
Right, always best to include detailed testing instructions! @brianteeman thoughts on the accessibility issue?

@tonypartridge did not realize that somebody did not know that one can create a menu link type wrapper... ;-)
I avoid iframes at all costs.
But not only that, you could have been trying it in a module, a component or text area. Maybe Even Inserting via a template override.
Without instructions everything is speculation at best.

How are you adding the iframe? In which context? As far as I know core features don’t use iframes unless I’m missing it?
