[Haskell-cafe] Reading Haddock sources on hackage no longer possible with simple browsers?

[Oleg Grenrus]

About hiding some parts of the DOM tree with aria-hidden attribute.

I'm :+1: to making accessibility-first designs / markup. We forgot that
completely when accepting new color scheme for haddock. The accessible
and pretty-looking are not in conflict, but not easy.
