Reconsider using aria-hidden instead of aria-modal
See original GitHub issueFirst of all, thank you for your great work with this project!
But I noticed that v7.0 dropped the use of aria-hidden in favor of aria-modal. Would you be open to reconsider that decision?
Aria-modal still has very limited support in Talkback and iOS VoiceOver, meaning that it is possible to access the background content when swiping through the modal. This can lead to pretty confusing experience for mobile screen reader users. See the following screenshot:

@fymmot Thank you for coming back to me and for sharing you experience with usability testing. At this stage, I would recommend authoring significant documentation about this limitation, as you suggested. I will also recommend the workaround from @chalkygames123, since I feel like it’s a great and rather un-intrusive solution to this problem.
@fymmot FYI, you can easily address this issue by hooking a library like aria-hidden to the
showandhideevents.
