Description

Overview

The sidebar customization flow must handle accessibility and keyboard navigation as first-class requirements.

Areas to audit

  • Keyboard access to customize mode.
  • Keyboard access to expand/collapse the Plugins group.
  • Keyboard and non-drag ways to move plugin items.
  • Focus states and focus order while customize mode is active.
  • Screen reader labels for icon-only controls.
  • Clear state announcements for moved, saved, or canceled changes.

Why

Drag/drop cannot be the only way to customize the sidebar. The interaction needs an accessible non-drag path and should remain understandable for keyboard and assistive technology users.
