Description

When cURL and response body elements are scrollable, they can be focused with tab navigation but there is no indication what these elements are. The screen reader starts to read the entire content of these elements.

Research direction

Start by locating the UI components that render the scrollable cURL and response body elements, then inspect their keyboard-focus and screen-reader behavior. Done means both focusable elements provide clear labels and screen readers do not read their entire contents merely because they receive focus.
