Hi.
NVDA doesn't restrict its IA2 live region support to web documents or
Mozilla, though it obviously hasn't been tested with any other framework
(since none exists).
It's worth noting that Instantbird (based on Mozilla) already implements
live regions on its chat output, though the chat output is actually a
dynamic web document.

Hey IA2 peeps,
Does anyone know if any apps & AT are using the IA2 attributes for live
region politeness outside of ARIA-markedup HTML? The question came up
today with a blind JAWS user who would like an accessible and efficient
IM solution. Since Thunderbird 15 now includes IM / live chat (and
Firefox/Mozilla generally support IA2), this seemed like it might be a
nice path forward for accessible/efficient IM on Windows - via the same
IA2 APIs for getting live regions to speak...
Regards,
Peter
