I think the original design was intended to behave more like a role="menu"
with role="menuitemradio"
(note that <input type="radio">
is implicitly role="radio"
).
An example of the ARIA design pattern Menu or Menu bar can be seen here: https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/examples/menubar/menubar-2/menubar-2.html (see the font selection menu, ignore that it is behind a menu button).
The downside of such an ARIA pattern is that we lose the default UA styles for radio inputs, I think, unless it can be made to work with <input type="radio">
in a way that makes sense.
This is a result of using a radio group for this control, and not implementing a custom control; the change / click event is used to trigger the replacement of the layer immediately, and thus the radio button labels don't get read.
This is a separate issue from #462, but related.
To reproduce, go here (NVDA on):
Tab 6 times, hit Enter, tab 2 times, hit Enter, tab 2 times, hit Enter, hit Tab, hit Down Arrow.
Expected behaviour:
You should hear "National Geographic Basemap - radio button checked one of three", "Satellite Imagery with Place Names - radio button checked two of three"
Actual behaviour:
You hear "National Geographic Basemap - radio button checked one of three","Clickable application" and then the focus goes back to the map.
