Comment (by Thibaud Colas):
Here are reference acceptance criteria for a skip link, if someone is
interested in giving this a shot, as well as a reference implementation,
from [https://www.magentaa11y.com/checklist-web/skip-link/ MagentaA11y]:
{{{
How to test a skip link
1. Test keyboard only, then keyboard + screenreader
- Tab: Focus moves to the skip link
- Enter: Activates the link, focus/tabindex moves directly to the targeted
element
2. Test mobile screenreader gestures
- Swipe: Focus moves to the skip link
- Doubletap: Activates the link, focus/tabindex moves directly to the
targeted element
3. Listen to screenreader output on all devices
- Name: It describes which landmark it's targeting
- Role: It identifies itself as a link
- Group: It is typically the first element in the page

For Django in particular,
- The skip link’s ("Skip to main content") text needs to be translate-
able.
- Screen reader tests can be done by our accessibility team if someone
wants to contribute to this and doesn’t know how to do this type of
testing (if you do, please test on either VoiceOver + Safari or NVDA +
Firefox for desktop, and either Android TalkBack or iOS VoiceOver on
mobile).
- Not sure if this is required but the keyboard support can likely be
demonstrated by writing an automated test for this with Selenium.
