The standard panel component's header had a mismatch between the visual order of controls and the keyboard focus order on mobile/tablet views, violating WCAG 2.4.3 (Focus Order). This was caused by CSS Flexbox `order` properties that visually re-arranged the actions and sortation controls on smaller screens without changing their underlying DOM order, creating a confusing and illogical navigation path for keyboard and screen reader users. Changes: - Modified `_ui-component_panel.scss` to align the flex `order` with the DOM order for `.panel-viewcontrols` and `.panel-controls` across all breakpoints. - This ensures the tabbing sequence is consistent with the visual layout, providing a predictable user experience. - The visual order on mobile now follows the DOM, presenting the sortation control before the actions dropdown.
