Compound Tooltips lack labels #322

Closed t3chguy closed 2 months ago

They add an aria-describedby on focus but lack any label at any other time which is not great for a11y technologies, see https://sarahmhigley.com/writing/tooltips-in-wcag-21/.

The only way around this from the caller is to specify aria-label on the child of the Tooltip which then means the label & description may be read, both containing the same text content.

I'll see if I can knock this out today (timeboxed)
