Comment (by Thibaud Colas):
I have two concerns with this that I’d recommend investigating further:
- Do screen readers announce landmark regions like footer that are empty?
If so that would be problematic. You should be able to test this with
VoiceOver on mac, and in particular the rotor: https://support.apple.com
/en-gb/guide/voiceover/mchlp2719/mac. If that feels like too much, please
say so and we’ll have the Django accessibility team picking this up
- Is it clear enough to people who would override this, that with it
outside `main`, they’d definitely need to use a `<footer>` tag? Otherwise
their content would be outside a landmark
