There is no reasonable way that I am going to get my clients to add a title attribute to links in a code edit. I am not sure why WP would go out of it’s way to remove an existing feature that really did not hurt anyone. I am glad to have a no-code option to put in title attributes again, it is a good little hint for visual and non-visual users (on screen readers). I am glad to have some accessibility back. I will definitely put this on all my client sites from now on. Thank you!
