Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with JAWS on the sp-action-button longpress example at the linked Action Button documentation page, using Space and Alt+Down Arrow in Firefox, Chrome, and Edge. Trace the component behavior for the hold affordance and verify that the longpress content can be activated with JAWS; also check the reported NVDA behavior for comparison.
