Comment:
I think this ticket is worth keeping to track that the current design has
accessibility problems.
I do however think that we might want to deprecate the `AdminDateWidget`
and instead use the HTML5 `<input type="date">` (see
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/Elements/input/date) which has a datepicker
native to the browser. I believe this is more accessible than what we have
(see also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2pkCDcAUwA). It also stops us
having something custom we need to maintain and improve the accessibility
of.
