Can someone summarize where we are now with the string freeze, and
what the freeze covers?

I think we are pretty much string complete for non-a11ly strings.

The export that I did yesterday included the last extra feature that was in 
flight, the View Later action extension.

If anyone is aware of other functionality that needs to land, this is the time 
to let us know.


Namely, are a11y strings included in the freeze? If so, I think our
a11y strings are far from complete -- we continue to get PRs from
dusek (our awesome a11y contributor) that contain NSLocalizedString
additions.

So I did not take a11y into account. Well, I sort of did, but as you are saying 
more patches are coming in. I kind of assumed that 'we will take whatever we 
can get'. But if that does not work with a11y then maybe we need to land those 
patches later so that we can land them fully localized? We can always do small 
incremental updates after our v1 with a11y improvements.

Also, I expect that we'll be adding/updating a11y labels as
we continue to refine our UI tests since KIF and a11y strings are
tightly coupled.

Emily ran into an issue where labels are sometimes unpredictable. Like when 
they are dynamic. I wonder if we should start using accessibility identifiers 
more consistently instead. AFAIK those are not end-user facing and can be used 
to pinpoint specific elements without relying on strings or localized strings. 
What do you think?
