Hypothetically if there is a web page with form that includes over say over 1000 checkboxes would this amount to a Keyboard trap fail or any WCAG success criteria failure? Does anyone have a view of this? Would the act of having to navigate through too many checkboxes be considered a failure of the keyboard trap because of the potential of the user giving up and not wanting to navigate through all those checkboxes?
