            In my daily business I encounter this problem again and again. And this issue has existed 5 years ago. It is really annoying for blind Confluence
            users if a checkbox can not checked with a keyboard, while non-blind people can simply click on the checkbox with the mouse.
            The solution would be so simply. The screen reader only needs an input tag. I and other blind people would be really grateful if you could solve this issue
            as soon as possible. Thanks.
