Labels: feature-request,accessibility

Type: <b>Bug</b>

CC @meganrogge 

Screen reader users cannot use "Inline Edit."

1. Activate screen reader

1. In any source editor, focus in a symbol

1. Run "Trigger Inline Edit, Control+Alt+="

## Current Behavior

Nothing is announced

## Expected Behavior

some actionable event needs to be triggered for screen readers.
