The columns have a title on top, but this is not associated with the
individual field elements.
Axe has flagged this as an accessibility issue related to the
[https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe/4.10/select-name select-name rule].

Comment:
Thank you, I believe this hasn’t been reported before. Not sure what the
fix looks like with Django’s admin implementation but in HTML that’s most
likely an extra `aria-labelledby` or `aria-label` for those elements.
