External links in post bodies already opened in a new tab and showed an
icon, but the icon is invisible to screen readers, so nothing announced
that the link leaves the site.
- blogex: ExternalLinks.rewrite/1 appends
<span class="blogex-external-hint"> (opens in a new tab)</span> as the
last child of every external anchor. No aria-label, so the accessible
name still contains the visible link text (WCAG 2.5.3); the icon colour
and 2.5.3 both hold. Idempotent: a second pass adds no second hint.
- blogex: anchors are now matched together with their closing tag
(the hint goes inside), so a stray unclosed <a> is left alone.
- app: sr-only rule for .blogex-external-hint in .blogex-post-body. The
split stays as before: blogex marks up, the host app styles.
- tests: hint cases in blogex (appended, per link, after inner markup,
idempotent, not on internal/mailto/anchor links) + anchors without href
(Blogex.ExternalLinks now at 100% line coverage), and an app test that
the hint reaches the rendered post page. Two exact-string expectations
updated for the intended markup change.
make test: app 179, blogex 162. make verify: green.
