a11y traversal order top left to bottom right not always giving great results #12187
Description
Traversal order in this screen shot is currently:
- Back button
- Shopping cart button
- Three dots button
- "SHRINE" title
I would expect SHRINE to come after the back button. However, the shipping cart button's bounding box has its top higher than the SHRINE title and is therefore traversed first in the current top left to bottom right approach.

As an idea to make this better: we could see if we can find out how Android defines traversal order for native apps.

I think this is what Android uses. It looks like they basically do left to right, top to bottom, but then allow the developer to move object hierarchies around by saying "this tree goes before this one" or "this tree goes after this one" in the traversal order. They prioritize the "goes before" setting over the "goes after" setting (so "goes after" doesn't happen if "goes before" exists).
Adding semantics traversal order support (#4540)

For the AppBar specifically, let's just use our ordering API to set the order correctly.
