role="navigation"from the#back-to-topelement.<abbr title="...">(accessible name hidden in atitleattribute) with visible link text plus a decorative,aria-hidden="true"arrow:Styling
#back-to-top afor a larger, easier-to-click/tap target.#back-to-topin print media, since it has no purpose on paper.Tests
structure-spec.jstests (title link, French localization) to match the new markup.role="navigation"is absent and that the link exposes visible accessible text.
