 The WordPress.org login page contains an invalid ARIA implementation where
 an <h1> element has role="presentation" but contains child elements with
 semantic meaning (an <a> element).

 File Location: wp-login.php

 URL: /wp-login.php

 Element:


 {{{
 <h1 role="presentation" class="wp-login-logo">
     <a href="https://wordpress.org/">WordPress</a>
 </h1>
 }}}
