There has been a bit of work on this in v5.1 (wagtail/wagtail#10515) but still a lot to do, moving to the next release.

Closing now, as the main ATAG 2.0 audit has been completed. There is still more work to validate its findings as per RFC 89, and integrate proposed improvements on the roadmap.

In the meantime, we are proceeding with WCAG 2.2 manual audit #63.
