When composing a message, the document accessible for the message body has an AccName of "about:blank", which is not very user-friendly. Suggestion: Give this a generic name like "Message body", not the subject field contents, since this can get very long. This can be done via aria-label on the document or iframe that holds the message body, and a string be added to the string bundle so that it can be localized, since this is a string spoken by screen readers.

This would still be a nice enhancement. Wayne, care to triage?

Thanks for looking. But this will be better in someone else's hands

Marco, would this be what you thought?
