      There are a few changes required to fix this:

      • the AJS.undim override (in the issue-search-plugin) no longer matches the behaviour of the one from AUI. This means a bunch of attributes on elements are no cleaned up, and means they're no longer seen by screen readers (the whole page). The override needs to be removed.
      • there are 2 other bits of code that can now be removed in JIRA because the fixes they were making are now in the AJS.undim method itself.
      • calling AJS.dim twice has a bug when called twice (which the JIRA dialogs do) and is being fixed: https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/AUI-4223 - fix in the next 5.7.x version of AUI.
      • JIRA dialogs do not specify aria-hidden="false"
