General notes

The highlighting of the focus (current focus position) via keyboard works with Chrome/EDGE. When using Firefox and Safari the focus borders are sometimes cut off. With Firefox the presentation of the focus border varies which leads to irritation for the users.

Status: Rather fulfilled

@tbsbdr @kulmann Confluence page says the following:

"Debatable if it needs fixing for the re-audit (partly fulfilled and browser-specific)"

Does it still need to be fixed?

If so: Cut off borders in Safari are caused by "overlapping" padding and or margin of other components. Unfortunately this is a Safari exclusive problem, so it could cause layout issues in other browsers. 😕

Consistent border styles could be achieved by removing browser specific design and implementing a custom one.
