WCAG Standard: Success Criterion 2.4.3 Focus Order
hey @ianpsant - it's been a while. Any update from Microsoft on this or other issues?
Microsoft addressed some of these issues in their PR (https://github.com/microsoft/BotFramework-WebChat/pull/4108), but we left additional comment from our testing on their ticket (https://github.com/microsoft/BotFramework-WebChat/issues/3935) which they haven't addressed yet. We will revisit all of this when we have further accessibiltiy testing when we move the chatbot.
Chatbot team sees this priority and will address post Rx skill launch. We are dependent on MSFT and will work closely to resolve.

User Story or Problem Statement
Details
The screen reader instructions say to use "arrow keys" to navigate through messages, and sighted users are not offered any instructions to use the arrow keys to navigate. It would be better to remove the custom instructions to screen readers, and have the chat log container include a
tabindex="0"
so it will receive focus, and anoverflow-y: auto
declaration so users can scroll with up and down arrow keys. This is a default browser behavior.Acceptance Criteria
