Criticals

Accessibility / i18n: Default Human Language is Hard Coded as English

https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-22621
The Customize Tabs page of the Preferences Tool has screen reader accessibility issues
- Does current ctrl + arrow keys or i-j-k-m interface solve this?

https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-22571
The All Grades table is two tables and a list coded to visually display as one table. Users of screen reading software will have a hard time navigating and understanding these tables.

- Big issue, but I'm interested in comments

https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-22555
Multiple Form Controls on the Course Grades page are unlabeled
 - Tagged as PATCH_ADDED -- not seeing exactly as implemented, but trunk also not tripping a basic label audit at the moment


https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-19700
Accessibility: Multiple Non-Unique "Options" Link Texts Present on Home Tool
 - In a new form, "Direct link to this tool"
