The removal of role="form"
may be considered contentious. It seems that, compared to the clear-cut case of <nav>
not needing role="navigation"
, <form>
does not explicitly get a role of form (at least, it doesn't seem to be exposed in my quick testing). So, having role="form"
can be useful, but only in cases where the author wants to make a form an explicit important landmark. For this reason (requires explicit author intent), I'd leave the attribute out from the general examples here.
Fixes #15109 (closed).
