Developing a Keyboard Interface: Add clarifying word to explanation of selection following focus(pull #3404)
Minor editorial change to clarify explanation of why it is sometimes good for selection to not follow focus. Original wording: >if displaying a new panel causes a network request and possibly a page refresh, the effect of having selection automatically focus can be devastating to the experience for keyboard and screen reader users. Ads the word "follow" for this new wording: >However, if displaying a new panel causes a network request and possibly a page refresh, the effect of having selection automatically follow focus can be devastating to the experience for keyboard and screen reader users.
