Description Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2010-09-22 10:30:44 UTC 
If you have the very, very latest (i.e. built from master at webkit.org) WebKitGtk, you will have quite a bit of accessibility. Orca ignores it all.
Comment 1 Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2010-09-22 10:48:14 UTC 
Important note: We will need to do tons of work on the Orca side to provide access to WebKitGtk content. Whilst it won't be as involved as the Gecko implementation, it will be involved. This particular bug will *not* attempt to solve all things WebKitGtk in Orca. In addition, it is not necessary to file a bunch of "Orca doesn't do such-and-such with <insert WebKitGtk app here>." We are aware of all of the issues and will address them as speedily as possible. The following commit is just the start of many good things to come. :-)
