Hello, I’m Hyongsop Kim in Korea.
I have a suggestion about NVDA and aria-label.
Let’s suppose that one html code is blow.
<input type=”text” aria-label=”type keyword” </input>
In that case, if I press tab to approach to the edit box, NVDA reads aria-label attribute.
But in browse mode, if I press arrow key to approach, NVDA reads only edit, not read the aria-label text in Internet Explorer and Firefox.
In my opinion, aria-label text is used for the screen reader users in case not available to write visual text, NVDA should read the aria-label text even if use arrow keys.
Please check this issue.

Thank you.
