The .accessibilityElement(children: ) modifier with the .ignore argument does a similar thing to set the container view to be an accessibility element in UIKit. It is the default argument, so you can just say .accessibilityElement(). Because of this, you'll need to use other modifiers to make it accessible and manually configure an accessibility label and value, traits... when necessary. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/view/accessibilityelement(children:) https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/accessibilitychildbehavior/ignore

Sometimes we may fail to convey to the user of things changing on the screen in a perceivable way. Toasts and similar should be announced. We may want to make clear that some content on the screen changed. Or we might want to update on progress.
