LGTM 👍

QA checks:

• Drawer in portrait
• Drawer in landscape
• Drawer open and changing orientation
• Talkback in the drawer
• Keyboard moving through the drawer
• Logo + Link in portrait
• Logo + Link in landscape
• Logo + Link in drawer open and changing orientation

After checking the accessibility regards on this issue and going back to our history to find the original cause, i stumbled upon the following QA report:

#4454 (comment)

The problem caused in the accessibility wasn't the blank spaces themselves, but the numbering in the dictation. The fix introduced in the current PR does not fix this, since all the items in the drawer list are pronounced as "x of 7" when there are only 4 (i miss one¿?)

I tested by removing the android:importantForAccessibility field, and the result was the same. I'd keep the field there anyway.

Therefore, we need a compromise solution:

• Keep the bad numbering dictation that allows the UI glitch to be removed
• Fix the numbering dictation, but UI could mess again
• (any other...?)

Since there is no a totally fittable solution, we'll go for the first approach:

Keep the bad numbering dictation that allows the UI glitch to be removed

there are other risky solutions that can lead to other bigger problems and bad UI/UX situations that are not worthy at this point.

Finally:

• We assume that numeration of items in the drawer is not totally correct and excedes the number of options. It could lead to confusion to visual impaired users, but, it does not hurt the UX.
• Drawer's look improved in both orientations, letting users to scroll options without overlapped text.

As usual, new feedback to receive is always welcome and we are open to new improvements and iterations in the feature.

Agreed @joragua?

Yeah, I agree. There could be another compromise solution but I think that, at the moment we are, is not feasible: modify the drawer layout and have an empty block between the menu and the footer (for example). I've tried it but the drawer collapses many times so, in my opinion, it is not worthy to work on it. 🤔 In this case, I would prefer to keep the bad numbering dictation from Talkback and fix the drawer glitch.

Approved, then.
