Accessibility

Wondering if anyone has looked at accessibility already with this package? Some issues with it:

• Doesn't block underlying view (easily resolved by wrapping SpeedDial with BlockSemantics)
• Doesn't announce whether the speed dial is open or closed
• Doesn't allow the child icon and label to be treated as a single semantic element, making navigation repetitive and cumbersome
• Navigates to an unannotated area that looks like a dismiss area
• Announces both the FAB tooltip and also the FAB icon

Some of this could be resolved easily by the app developer if the package followed Flutter's convention of passing widgets rather than say IconData or List<SpeedDialChild>.

As an aside, it's a real shame that issues use code examples with Icons.accessibility as it gives misleading search results.

Answering my question, whilst not perfect, I've found better success by not passing a child widget to SpeedDialChild and instead putting both the label and the child floating action button into a row passed to labelWidget. This gives better screen reader navigation and avoid most of the duplicate announcements.
