Hi all,
I am not sure whether I should be writing to this
list of firefox/mozilla list. If this is not appropriate
forum kindly let me know.
I am trying to automate firefox using at-spi/dogtail.
However, when I traverse the tree for Gecko app,
it just gives me access to main application and the

Yes.
Firefox 1.5 or 2.0 will work better if you set GTK_MODULES

Hello,
My suggestion is to turn on the accessibility Technology by default

Hi Petra:
In the most recent versions of Gnome, assistive technology support is on
by default. The access keys idea is a reasonable one, and I think it
would greatly improve the Ubuntu accessibility experience for screen

Agreed. For

Do you have any specific use cases

If by this you mean that you will ship SOK in preference to GOK in
Ubuntu, I think you are making a mistake.

Henrik - Carlos Diogenes is working on adding Composite to gnome-mag,
which would make it work as a drop-in enhancement. You probably should
ping him about this, it makes little sense to duplicate work.

Regarding this pointer grabbing Bill keeps mentioning. I've come
across it once in the sok settings dialog where the listbox grabs the
pointer and then stops the release click on SOK from being detected.
Oddly I got round this by running the settings dialog as a separate
process.
Maybe this

It is possible to detect when pointer grabbing occurs so work arounds
are quite possible I should think.
Not as far as I can tell. X just doesn't allow it.
Since GOK can not be configured to work out of the box there seems

Cool, let's make it an easy-to select option.
However a fixed

In the beginning we tried to give guidance, but I got the distinct

Hi Chris:
I think there have been misunderstandings of various sorts, probably on
both sides. I don't recall ever refusing to fix any corepointer
issues, for instance - at the time you asked, there were multiple
research efforts under way to try and address them.
I think you should understand
