Find dialog "Find" and "Replace" text fields need labels. (Placeholders are not enough).

Comment 2 Carolyn MacLeod CLA 2017-10-26 11:22:54 EDT 
Fixed by just adding invisible aria-labels for screen readers.
Ideally, the true fix would be to have visible labels for both fields in order to reduce confusion (accessibility cognitive problem), however since that would require a redesign, we will just go with the partial solution for now.
