Grid cell should tell more about its content on focus #7225

What is the problem?

If you focus a grid cell with a link or a button, NVDA tells you about the cells text content. But NVDA doesn't tell you if there is ab link or a button, you may activate. In fact, depending on the cell structure, SPACE activates certain elements. NVDA should tell you, what happens on pressing SPACE.

The same issue surfaces on when Grid is in multiselect mode. Checkbox components have aria-label="Select row" but that is not announced when cell is focused or checkbox is triggered from cell level.

Ideally some identifying information could be passed to dynamic aria-labels. For example "Select row: John Doe", "Delete: John Doe".

I think this issue is not the right one for your comment. Take a look at #3471. My comment is about those aria-labels and what NVDA is telling you.
