Research direction

Start by locating the Vaadin Grid component and its sorting and filter-row focus entry points. Review how the Grid currently exposes sort orders and column captions, then determine how the three requested ARIA behaviors can be verified. Done means the requested sort announcements, sort-order notifications, and filter-row text-field focus notifications are supported.
