+Allow computing name for inaccessible elements
+
+This is mainly targetted at integration with `@testing-library/dom`.
+But it can also be used as a general performance boost when used in a JSDOM environment.
+The rationale is that most elements are part of the a11y tree.
+In those cases computing a11y tree exclusion is wasted.
+Since it's expensive, we can disable it.
+The recommendation is to only ignore a11y tree inclusion locally and specifically
+enable it for the tests where you do know that a11y tree inclusion will play a role.
