Announce changes in place

Announce results, saves and errors that appear in place through a polite live region.

Draft — not yet reviewed by a maintainer

Why it matters

Sighted people see a result count change or a "Saved" message; screen-reader users hear nothing unless the change is announced.

How to check it

With a screen reader, filter, save and fail: each change is announced once, focus unmoved.

The default it guards against

A result count that updates silently, or a toast that appears and disappears without being announced.
