jQuery UI Dialogs have a well-considered and tested approach to the application of ARIA attributes.

It was suggested in #890288: Improve Overlay accessibility by using modal dialogs that we leverage the jQuery UI team's learning and apply the same or near the same attribute markup to our Overlay module elements.

Tasks

  1. Evaluate the current usage of ARIA attributes in the Overlay module HTML components.
  2. Enhance the implementation.

Jesse, can you give us some more examples? I assume this is all in the JS rather than the sample HTML.
