 * Having run an accessibility check with Axe and Accessibility Insights the breadcrumbs
   are throwing an error:
 * “A ul or ol element must directly contain only li elements.”
 * Is there a way to change this in admin to improve accessibility? Can Accessibilty
   of this plugin be improved in future?
 * This fails [WCAG 1.3.`1 – Info and relationships](https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/#info-and-relationships)

 * How are you calling the breadcrumb trail? It sounds like you may be using a `
   ul` or `ol` element to wrap the breadcrumb trail call but not using the `bcn_display_list()`(
   or haven’t gone through the tedious work of changing all the templates to use`
   li` elements).
