We have regions marked up, so we meet the criterion. I think a further improvement that would benefit all users would be keyboard shortcuts for different regions (e.g. main, file browser, sidebar, ref panel, ...)

Problem description
We current do not have bypass blocks to quickly allow users to skip to different parts of the page. Without bypass blocks, it can mean a keyboard user might have to tab through numerous links to access obvious content, or a screen reader user might have to listen to hundreds of unnecessary words.
