Native Android bottom sheets are new to me.
Is there anything we need to be concerned about implementing them on an Android phone? I would like to assume that native = accessible, but would appreciate hearing that from this community.
I found this guidance on do's and don'ts, which can help direct design considerations, not block key elements from view, etc.

My questions:
* Will the screen reader announce the bottom sheet when it pops up? Does focus get moved to it natively?
* Will a screen reader user simply swipe to discover it?
* What is the expected and/or optimal experience?
Thanks!
