Dialog component uses dialog role along with aria-labelledby referring to the header element however any attribute is passed to the root element so you may use aria-labelledby to override this default behavior. In addition aria-modal is added since focus is kept within the popup.
It is recommended to use a trigger component that can be accessed with keyboard such as a button, if not adding tabIndex would be necessary.
Trigger element also requires aria-expanded and aria-controls to be handled explicitly.
Close element is a button with an aria-label that refers to the aria.close property of the locale API by default, you may usecloseButtonProps to customize the element and override the default aria-label.
