Hi all,
while the videos work fine in our accordions and there's no issue of focus
order, etc., would you expect just non-interactive text in an accordion
panel? The accordion tab/header does not indicate that there's a video. At
least not yet. I guess that this isn't a purely accessibility-related
question, but it could possibly relate to WCAG 2.1 if videos are not
expected.
Thanks,

Don't see how it would (unless you're doing something annoying like
autoplaying the video as soon as the user switches to that tab, which
yeah, you shouldn't)
