+// In this file we define a set of DOM transformations that are specifically
+// intended for blind screen readers.
+//
+// See https://github.com/wekan/wekan/issues/337 for the general accessibility
+// considerations.
+
+// Without an href, links are non-keyboard-focusable and are not presented on
+// blind screen readers. We default to the empty anchor `#` href.
+function enforceHref(attributes) {
+  if (!_.has(attributes, 'href')) {
+    attributes.href = '#';
+  }
+  return attributes;
+}
+
+// `title` is inconsistently used on the web, and is thus inconsistently
+// presented by screen readers. `aria-label`, on the other hand, is specific to
+// accessibility and is presented in ways that title shouldn't be.
+function copyTitleInAriaLabel(attributes) {
+  if (!_.has(attributes, 'aria-label') && _.has(attributes, 'title')) {
+    attributes['aria-label'] = attributes.title;
+  }
+  return attributes;
+}
+
+// XXX Our implementation relies on overwriting Blaze virtual DOM functions,
+// which is a little bit hacky -- but still reasonable with our ES6 usage. If we
+// end up switching to React we will probably create lower level small
+// components to handle that without overwriting any build-in function.
