Ignore a11y href warnings if role="button" set

[char]

Using a span instead of an anchor when using on:click suppresses the warning but actually hinders accessibility.

I mentioned this in #1719, but I didn't receive a response.

Try using a button element instead.

I would also recommend to use <button>.

Yeah, it really should be a button. If that's completely impossible for styling reasons or whatever, using a <span> instead of an <a> is still preferable AFAICT. What do you mean when you say it hinders accessibility?

Also, please don't open duplicate issues. Sometimes it takes a while to respond to issues, and part of the reason is that there's a lot of them. Duplicating them compounds that problem. I'm closing this one.

Ah, my bad — I didn't realise this was a PR rather than an issue. Nonetheless I think Svelte's behaviour is correct here.

A lot of times I do things like <a href="/settings" use:link>Settings</a> for example with svelte routing. Would be nice to have a setting to turn these warnings off. A lot of examples eg in tailwind use a for navigation stuff like this.
