Accessibility for Dynamic View
Hi, I'm having trouble with basic accessibility testing on Dynamic View. I can open the details page by using the keyboard. However, the focus is not on the form, somehow it is still tabbing through the sheet. I would expect to switch to the form.
When the focus is finally on the form and I tab through the fields, I can get to the Discard Changes but never to the Save button. After discard changes the focus leaves the form and returns to the web. Tabbing backwards returns to the discard changes link, skipping the Save button.
It seems like you have a tabindex="1" on the Save button. Generally, it is only 0 and -1 recommended for accessibility but I'm sure there's a reason for that. Whether this is why I can't tab to the Save button I'm not sure.
Has anyone implemented Dynamic View without failing WCAG for keyboard navigation? I think Dynamic View is a great feature for editing but it needs to be usable for all.

That is some odd interaction, but eventually I can tab to the save. For me - on Firefox - it is (4) tabs after I've the URL selected, or (10) tabs after having "Discard Changes" selected. That seems like a good request for the product feedback team to make the save fall in line with where you expect, after the discard changes.
