    [Alice Boxhall, a11y] @garcialo: you mean not behind an experiment?

    [Alice Boxhall, a11y] Cause the name computation stuff is in Canary right now

    Correct. He men

    He mentioned it was coming without need for plug in maybe he didn't know it was in Canary.

    [Alice Boxhall, a11y] There's stuff in canary but doesn't overlap all that much with the extension yet.

    [Alice Boxhall, a11y] So, no auditing. More a11y node inspection.

    ah
  9. garcialo

    will the auditing eventually make it or would it stay as the extension?

    [Cameron Cundiff, a11y] I'm embedding a Mailchimp signup and I noticed this:

    [Cameron Cundiff, a11y] `\
    <!-- real people should not fill this in and expect good things - do not remove this or risk form bot signups-->
    <div style="position: absolute; left: -5000px;"><input type="text" name="<random uuid>" tabindex="-1" value=""></div>111

    23:22
    [Cameron Cundiff, a11y] as far as I can tell, screen readers can absolutely get focus on that field

    23:23
    [Cameron Cundiff, a11y] that code btw is from their embeddable form snippet
  14. zakim-robot
    23:23
    [Cameron Cundiff, a11y] wondering if there are any Mailchimp peeps here who can help me file a bug

    [Cameron Cundiff, a11y] seems like a splash of aria-hidden would do the trick
