Ticket #42888, comment 51
initial v1 7 7 @anevins you're right that icon-only controls are a known accessibility anti-pattern and visible text should be provided instead. This would require new design. Considering that also the buttons in the User edit / new pages display only an icon in the responsive view, I'd tend to think this should be addressed holistically for all these buttons. The next release cycle would be a good opportunity to audit these controls and improve them. 8 8 9 For now, I'd propose to get this change in core as it's an improvement. The base functionality (entering a password) is accessible to everyone. T e visibility toggle can be improved but that's an additional feature that doesn't prevent the use of the password field. Also, the aria-labels associated to the button are simple enough and pretty intuitive:9 For now, I'd propose to get this change in core as it's an improvement.
