Description
Describe the bug
#23276 added keyboard shortcuts to move the blocks. Nice improvement for all keyboard users. Pending #3218.
However, screen reader users don't get any confirmation of the move action. The only chance they have to check a block has been moved to the intended position is to explore the content around the block and verify it in a tedious, laborious, process.
It would be great to add a couple simple audible speak() messages to confirm the result of the move actions.
ideally the messages should also announce the new position. For example:
- "Block moved up to position {n}"
- "Block moved down to position {n}"
