Autocomplete: internal select doesn't have a label #2223

That select isn't shown to end users, but not having a label is a problem per WCAG2 1.3.1 (A), reported as E885 by TotalValidator. Maybe adding an empty title is enough.

TotalValidator says a role="presentation" is invalid on a <select>.
Putting a role="presentation" on an ancestor has no effect.
Adding style="display: none" on the <select> has no effect.
Adding title="" as no effect.
But: adding title="internal" works.
