Accessibility and aria-label in charts

[Bruno Barrette]

Hi!

I am trying to understand how the accessibility support for the charts component works. Looking at the generated markup, I noticed that all "path" elements have the aria-label attribute, but without any value specified in them.

Also, is there any way to specify the aria-label attribute on a chart? It is currently hardcoded as "Chart" and there doesn't seem to be any ways to change it. I've tried adding the attribute on the component, but this throws an exception. I also tried to add the Title on the chart, but this doesn't add it as the aria-label (and I don't necessarily want to display the title since I am already displaying it outside of the chart).

Thanks in advance for any help
