Accessibility
An <sp-dropdown>
parent will ensure that the wrapped <sp-menu>
features a role of listbox
and contains children with the role option
. Upon focusing the <sp-dropdown>
using ArrowDown
will also open the menu while throwing focus into first selected (or unselected when none are selected) menu item to assist in selecting of a new value.
