State ownership and DOM target

Concern	Contract
State	Application controlled through checked and the matching callback.
DOM target	Native input attributes target the owned form control; wrapper-specific props stay on the documented component root.

Anatomy and related components

This component exposes one public component root rather than a compound member API.

Limitations

Avoid Checkbox when wrapping controls without labels or accessible names.

Use only the documented props, entry points, and compound members. Internal DOM nesting and CSS class names can change without becoming part of the public component contract.

Accessibility

Use with `FormControlLabel` or provide `aria-label`.

Use with `FormControlLabel` or provide `aria-label`.
