The right column of Faceted Browse pages (#section-content) has aria-hidden="true". As a result, screen reader users cannot access the faceted browse results or pagination. aria-hidden="true" removes the section from the accessibility tree, and thus screen readers skip directly from the facets to the footer.
I might be misunderstanding the intended the functionality here, but based on our testing with multiple browsers, this is a really crucial accessibility issue needing a fix.
Based on asset/js/site/page.js it’s supposed to toggle to aria-hidden="false" at some point, but we haven’t been able to achieve that in any of our tests; the attribute remains aria-hidden="true" no matter what we do, screen reader-wise or keyboard-wise.
