Description

The "new tag" input field has a description (in the .howto paragraph) that can be used as target for aria-describedby to improve feedback for screen reader users.

Using "trunk" for version and "Press This" as component though this relates also to the admin.

@afercia: we cannot add the same code to the postbox. There can be more than one tags postboxes on the screen, will have to generate the HTML IDs by using the taxonomy name, etc.
