Feature request: custom input attributes for slider

Would it be possible to add custom input attributes to the slider? https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/inputs/slider https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/inputs/radiobutton/custom-attributes#custom-input-attributes

For accessibility we want to add custom 'aria-labelledby' and 'name' attributes. When we add this to 'kendo-slider' component, nothing is read for it by NVDA.

No problem if you make this request public.

For now we have manually added the attributes to the element. Would be nice to have this feature, because now when something changes to the slider there is a change the attributes wont be applied.

Hi Jurgen,

The request is valid. Would you prefer to make this thread public so it appears in our feedback portal, or would you like me to open a separate feature request thread with the desired functionality?

In the meantime, you can add aria-labelledby when using our Kendo UI for Angular Label component. For other attributes like name, you can add them manually by accessing the DOM element and applying the attributes, or by creating a reusable directive that adds the attributes to the specific Slider element.

I am looking forward to your reply.
