• Accessibility: ReadonlyField has invalid aria-labelledby attribute value in the CMS
• Accessibility: Do not use the meta viewport tag to disable zoom
• Accessibility: OptionSetField and CheckboxSetField options missing role="option"
• Accessibility: ReadOnlyField is missing role attribute
• Avoid sorting lists when we don’t need to
• Accessibility: Screen readers don’t know the purpose of the URLSegment link
• Deprecation notice for DataObject::get_one() is incomplete
• Avoid sorting lists when we don’t need to (for Hierarchy::duplicateWithChildren() specifically)
• Accessibility: Interactive elements nested in an invalid way

Bug fixes

• Accessibility: Wrong element had aria-expanded removed.
• Missing error message in table view
• Versioned::get_latest_version() can return null - this needs to be accounted for
