The title tag is readable by numerous screen readers and its use is
considered to be accessible. See
https://www.w3.org/WAI/tutorials/forms/labels/#using-the-title-attribute
(there for forms, but similarly this can be applied to buttons).

Screen readers Orca (Ubuntu), NVDA, ChromeVox at minimum can read the
title tag. Therefore, we are using the title tag for the time being for
buttons that appear in tables like this one to have a consistent
implementation.

Title:
  Edit/delete buttons under iframe sources are not accessible

Status in Mahara:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  In Administration -> Allowed iframe sources, the accessibility
  features of the edit and delete buttons in the table are somewhat
  inconsistent, and the edit button is actually broken. In particular:

  - When using JAWS, pressing Enter on the edit button jumps to the top of the page instead of opening the edit form
  - The edit button is actually a link - since it modifies the current page it would make more sense as a button
  - The edit button is descriptive (it contains the name of the row it's deleting) but the delete button isn't
