Provide a skip-to-content link

[ewinslow]

All layouts should give the main content area an ID of "elgg-content" (or whatever) so that we can provide an accessibly-hidden link at the top of the page.

This ​post is really interesting, but I prefer an invisible link. And you?

Wondering if role=main isn't our best bet here. Skip links apparently don't even migrate focus most of the time and the only argument in favor of a skip link was for magnifying glass users, which I don't find compelling.

Look at ​http://riley.dutton.us/phocco/phocco.html

It has a jump to link that allows go to the beginning of the page when you scrolled down. We can use something like this to solve the a11y problem and provide an useful link to go up in the page.
