Changelog 2026-03-05 (Accessibility Changelog Filter Focus Retention Pass 55)

Published

Article content

Changed

  • Added focus-state tracking before changelog filter updates.
  • If filtering hides the currently focused list item, focus now moves to a stable announcement target (filter summary, with panel fallback).
  • Preserved existing filter behavior, URL sync, and empty-state announcements.

Why

  • Prevents keyboard users from losing context when active focus target disappears after a filter change.
  • Improves assistive-tech continuity by moving focus to a predictable status/region anchor.
