Core Accessibility Features

1. Keyboard Focus Management:
   • Pressing Tab / Shift+Tab traverses interactive elements in a logical, cyclic focus loop.
   • Pressing Escape dismisses non-mandatory dialogs or triggers default opt-out.
2. Screen Reader ARIA Semantics:
   • Elements utilize explicit role="dialog", aria-modal="true", and aria-labelledby bindings.
   • Real-time updates utilize aria-live="polite" regions.
3. High Contrast Color Ratios:
   • All text and interactive button borders maintain a minimum contrast ratio of 4.5:1 against backgrounds.
4. Reduced Motion Support:
   • Automatically disables HUD glowing animations when prefers-reduced-motion: reduce is detected in user system settings.
