Role of Skeleton

[shayantabrizi]

Shouldn't Skeleton component have a role of progressbar?

As far as I know, no. Closing as it's an extension of #26930

Could you please explain why? Doesn't Skeleton show waiting for the result, similar to progressbar? If not, what is the correct role?

Please have a read at the duplicate issue I have linked. It links other discussions that provides context. From what I remember, the fundamental problem is that the nominal use case is to have multiple Skeleton rendered, while there is only one loading area. So aria attributes can't be hosted by the Skeleton, it's the responsibility of the developers to add them on the container.
