 The bugs you find when doing accessibility testing.

<input type="radio" id="mc">
<label for="mc"><code>Console.Write</code> prints output on new line</label>

Firefox 117 (current): Dev tools erroneously shows accessible name on input as only "prints output on new line"

Firefox 118 (version in waiting): Dev tools correctly shows accessible name on input as "Console.Write prints output on new line"

Wouldn't have noticed if I wasn't testing with a screen reader.

Firefox 118 was released 9/26 (and 118.0.1 on 9/28).

Oh, now Firefox, like Safari, recognizes the `<search>` element.
