Announcement banners can turn off their accent bar

Announcement banners can now appear without the coloured accent bar, depending on what the server sends.

What

The remote announcement schema gained an accentBar boolean, so a server-sent announcement can render without the coloured accent bar.

Details
  • accentBar: boolean defaults to true in the schema
  • the announcement slot exposes showAccentBar, which treats anything other than an explicit false as true
  • surrounding chrome draws or omits the bar based on that value
  • content comes from remote announcement config, so what you see depends on what the server sends; absent a value the bar is drawn
Evidence

showAccentBar

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
