Bug Description
We have a patch in the control-centre that depends on a schema that may not be installed (if overlay scrollbars have been removed).
This causes the entire control centre to crash when trying to open the a11y panel if overlay scrollbars have been uninstalled (which is something particularly likely to be done by a user requiring a11y features, since overlay scrollbars are known to cause issues for these users).
