           Summary: Accessibility: Add missing legend to login form
                    fieldset in OPAC

  Target Milestone: ---

The login form contains a <fieldset> without a corresponding <legend> element.

Accessibility testing reports:
Fieldset missing legend
A fieldset does not have a legend.
The affected markup is:
<fieldset class="action">
    <input type="hidden" name="login_op" value="cud-login">
    <input type="submit" value="Log in" class="btn btn-primary">
</fieldset>

A <fieldset> should have a <legend> that describes the group of form controls
it contains. Without a legend, assistive technologies may not have an
accessible description for the grouped controls.

Since this fieldset appears to contain only a hidden input and the "Log in"
submit button, we should also determine whether a <fieldset> is semantically
necessary here. If it is needed, an appropriate <legend> should be added.
Otherwise, the fieldset could potentially be replaced with a non-semantic
container.

Steps to reproduce
Navigate to the login page.
Run an accessibility check using WAVE or another accessibility testing tool.
Inspect the login form.
Observe that the <fieldset class="action"> element does not contain a <legend>.
