[Bug 1259388] [NEW] Input help text should be linked using ARIA
Public bug reported:
It would be helpful for users of screen readers to be able to hear the help text assigned to form fields. Setting the aria-describedby attribute on the input is probably the best way to do this.
This is especially important for inputs which require a specific format (such as dates)
Affects latest master
