Description
In the Export screen, form fields do have labels but they're not correctly associated. We could also further improve semantics and accessibility grouping together form controls that are logically grouped, using fieldsets and legends.
Would like to discuss a bit with the accessibility team what should we do with form elements that are revealed inside the expandable panels: as soon as users select the Posts or Pages radio buttons, additional form controls get displayed but screen reader users don't get notified they've just got additional options. See screenshot below:
