Issue Summary
the instruction message present for “Filter Name ” field i.e “Enter a name for this filter” is not programmatically associated with its input field.
Note: A similar issue has been observed on the header region in the "Help us improve Jira" modal dialog for the "Summary" input field. Please refer to screenshot 2. - this part is split off to JRASERVER-75214

- Navigate to “View all project” link and activate it
- Navigate to "kanban" link present in data table and activate it.
- Navigate to "View all issues and filter" link and activate it.
- Navigate to the “Save as” button and activate it.
- Observe modal dialog gets added on the page.
- Navigate to the “Filter Name” field and observe instruction text is present just below the field but not announced by screen reader software.
Actual Result
While navigating to the "Filter Name” input field, the instruction message(which is present just below the input field) is not announced for the screen reader user. As a result screen, reader users will be unaware of what input data is expected if the instruction message not announce by screen reader software.
