36640	Error messages should use aria-errormessage	Tobias Bengfort		"#32819 added `aria-describedby` to associate help texts and errors with their inputs. I recently learned that there is also the more specialized [https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.2/#aria-errormessage aria-errormessage].

I am not sure if using `aria-describedby` over `aria-errormessage` was a conscious decision.

One issue might be that `aria-errormessage` seems to be intended for client side validation. It must be used with `aria-invalid=""true""`. See also https://github.com/w3c/aria/issues/2048 for a discussion of the differences between `aria-describedby` and `aria-errormessage`."
