I don't have your original post on this topic anymore, but here are my 
responses to this message:

I'm not a GUI user (like, at all) so, without a huge learning curve, can't do 
much to help improve it. Nevertheless, I'd like to see support for the GUI 
environment improved as much as possible as my position is that a braille user 
should be free to use whichever environment he prefers with as little 
hinderance as possible.

I'd like to see our AtSpi2 screen driver enhanced, as much as can be, so that 
we can be as standalone and in control as possible with respect to the GUI 
environment.

I already have a keyboard table designed to make using Mate and Orca much 
easier from a braille keyboard. I've been planning to integrate it one of these 
days, especially since brltty-6.7 contains fixes to make GUI keyboard input 
work properly.

There's always something we can do.
