-### `a11y-no-onchange`
-
-Enforce usage of `on:blur` over/in parallel with `on:change` on select menu elements for accessibility. `on:blur` should be used instead of `on:change`, unless absolutely necessary and it causes no negative consequences for keyboard only or screen reader users. `on:blur` is a more declarative action by the user: for instance in a dropdown, using the arrow keys to toggle between options will trigger the `on:change` event in some browsers. Regardless, when a change of context results from an `on:blur` event or an `on:change` event, the user should be notified of the change unless it occurs below the currently focused element.

 Avoid positive `tabIndex` property values to synchronize the flow of the page with keyboard tab order.
