What is the PWD impact?

This is a mirror bug created for LCW, I was able to reproduce using https://microsoft.github.io/BotFramework-WebChat/01.getting-started/a.full-bundle/

When user navigates across messages , with scren reader on and scan mode off, the narrator does not mention the information in webchat__stacked-layout__status

for the case attached the text missing as part of the narration is "28 miinutes ago"

User Impact:
Users relying on Screen Readers cannot identify who sent the message or when it was sent.

Start with the full-bundle demo URL and reproduce the issue in Windows Edge with Narrator, scan mode off. Inspect the transcript navigation and the webchat__stacked-layout__status element while moving across messages. Done means the message and its status information, such as the sender and elapsed time, are included in the screen reader narration.
