Comment:
Why not use display:none instead of overflow:hidden; height:0? display:none seems to have the desired behavior in terms of exposure to AT and keyboard navigation in browsers.

    <thetext>The height was used instead of display to make the element open and close because then it can be animated — but I guess that isn&apos;t necessary. I&apos;ve made it more vague.

The clipping when open is intentional, because if we don&apos;t clip then animating the &lt;details&gt; becomes dangerous since different solutions might expose different rendering artifacts.</thetext>
