Missing label associations throughout WordPress

[MarcoZ]

There are several instances throughout WordPress where there are no proper associations between labels and their corresponding form fields.

Taking this ticket.

Updated patch, removes inline styles and uses proper CSS styling instead.

Removes styling on fieldsets

[MarcoZ]

Giving the fieldsets a height, padding, and margin of 0 in addition to a border of 0.

Tested 3rd patch in FF2 and Safari against r7840. All works as advertised on the box.

1. All closable boxes have their heading label link removed from previous patch, and a hidden label has been added.

[MarcoZ]

2. Fixed up the labels for the new custom field and the key/value pairs in the Custom Fields box. Had to use hidden labels, since there is no way without ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) to link the several fields to the header. In table navigation mode, it would be picked up, but when filling out forms, hidden labels have to be used.
3. Reworked how fieldsets are exposed. Now, the fieldset is only present within the cell the form fields that are to be grouped are in. Firefox would otherwise create a grouping outside the table, since it does not allow a fieldset to spawn multiple table cells. To not cause any layout problems, the legend is hidden, but is still picked up by screen readers. Also tested in IE. Please see if this also works correct in Safari!

Remove height: 0; from the fieldset styling to fix visual issues. Thanks rmccue for helping test this one from the visual side and for the reviews!

Also work with a hidden label on "Tags" to be consistent. Also, was pointing to wrong input ID.

[MarcoZ]

Update to trunk, resolve conflict in wp-admin/wp-admin.css. Otherwise unchanged.

[MarcoZ]

Also correct label for "new category" field.

[MarcoZ]

Added labels for wp_dropdown_* generated dropdown lists.

[MarcoZ]

Updated to Trunk, added hidden fieldset for new avatar feature.

[rmccue]

Tested on r7879, on FF2 and Safari. All good to go.

Wow. Thats a big patch :-) Good work.

Not sure this is 2.5.2 material really - think it is best to wait for 2.6.
