This new rule is causing standard accessible text clipping techniques to fail. For example, this CSS:
.accessible-text { position: absolute !important; clip: rect(0.0625rem 0.0625rem 0.0625rem 0.0625rem); clip: rect(0.0625rem, 0.0625rem, 0.0625rem, 0.0625rem); padding: 0 !important; border: 0 !important; height: 0.0625rem !important; width: 0.0625rem !important; overflow: hidden; }
is marked as a violation in axe-coconut.
@WilcoFiers pointed out above that elements with overflow:hidden might be exempted. I think this is a good idea.
We use axe-coconut for testing because of some of the useful experimental rules. But now we are getting vast numbers of false positives due to this new rule.
Note: I put this same text mistakenly on the PR for this rule....
