Comment (by muddassirnasim):
This change makes sense from an accessibility standpoint. Placing Screen
Options and Help after the main heading gives users a clearer, more
logical reading and tab order.
A couple quick notes to consider:
{{{
- Confirm the update works consistently across all admin screens.
- Run a brief keyboard/screen-reader check to ensure the new order feels
natural.
- Watch for any plugins that might assume the old markup structure.
}}}
Overall, this is a positive improvement and should help with orientation
for assistive-tech users.
