Mirror disabled state through aria-disabled on selection#5579
Merged
Conversation
This is needed to screen readers know that the Select2 is disabled when focus is put on the selection container. Because we were mirroring the disabled state to the search input on a multiple select in the past, this is really only needed for single select elements which would not otherwise has the disabled property. This was identified in a previous accessibility audit as being something which Select2 did not properly report because we were not setting the attributes properly. Fixes #4575
