  • Summary changed from Screen readers do not know menu panels are expandable to Screen readers do not know available menu item accordion sections are expandable
  • Version changed from trunk to 3.6

To avoid confusion with Customizer panels; these are technically accordion sections.

In the patch, is there a reason for the removal of the hndle class (I don't think it's needed anymore, but not sure if we can safely remove it)?

Well, I removed it and tested, and I couldn't detect any change in behavior or appearance. I can't swear that it's absolutely safe to remove, but it seems likely. Probably worth inspecting for any JS or CSS references that would be relevant.
