Storybook: a11y addon - addParameters doesn't work (react)

[customcodepl]

I've tried to limit inspect elements only to selector scope.

In config.js file I added:

addDecorator(withA11Y);

addParameters({
    a11y: {
      element: '#foo'
    }
  });

Expected behavior
It should be limited to provided selector.

If applicable, add code samples to help explain your problem.

System:

• OS: MacOS
• Device: Mac mini
• Browser: chrome
• Framework: react
• Addons: a11y
• Version: 5.0.0

I've also noticed that addon should work with import { withA11y } from '@storybook/addon-a11y' and addDecorator(withA11y). However, it seems to be working without a decorator. What's more I also tried to do something like this: import { } from '@storybook/addon-a11y' and it also worked.
Maybe there is something wrong with index.js file.

Could someone explain me, please, what's wrong?

@customcodepl I just took a look at the code and it looks like the addon lost support for the element parameter in the v4 => v5 upgrade:

https://github.com/storybooks/storybook/blob/next/addons/a11y/src/index.js#L14

Should be easy to add back -- any interest in taking a shot at that?
