+## 2024-06-16 - [Keyboard Nav for Drilldown Component]
+**Learning:** Added aria-current='step', <nav aria-label='Breadcrumb'> wrappers, aria-live='polite' dynamic counters, and focus-visible:ring-2 to drilldown-navigation to vastly improve keyboard accessibility and screen reader support without changing visual behavior.
+**Action:** Always wrap progressive disclosure step indicators in a semantic <nav> and explicitly hide decorative icons.
