GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 405541
regression: Braille stopped showing message header from beginning of row

This is a regression. Braille no longer displays a Thunderbird message header row from the beginning of the row. It starts from the date field.
Created attachment 82176 [details] [review] The committed patch. Should have attached the patch before committing.
The problem is that orca.setLocusOfFocus to the first cell in a message header, no longer causes that cell to get focus. The fix is to set the index of the cell that currently has focus to the index of the first cell in the row. I'm not sure if this is a hack or not, but the Thunderbird team wants the cell that is in the sorting column to have focus.
There's also discussion on Mozilla bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=368346 about possibly getting Thunderbird to do the right thing (i.e., allow you to arrow between cells on a line).
