Expectation for the section element: convey boundaries if named

This expectation is from the section element feature.

Rationale:

A user might need to differentiate content inside the region from content outside of the region

Strength of this expectation for different types of assistive technologies:

Screen Readers: SHOULD
Voice Control: NA

Examples:

A screen reader might announce the role of the element when entering and say something like "leaving" when exiting.
A screen reader might not explicitly announce entering and existing the element, but instead imply that the is in the containing object by conveying the roles of required children (options in a listbox for example).
A screen reader might announce position in set information such as "1 of 6".
A screen reader might not convey boundaries if the content fits on a single line

Grading method:

All of the listed commands must pass for the expectation to pass.
