Virtualbox is mostly accessible

[Jacob Schmude]

Hi Everyone
Well, I downloaded the latest Virtualbox, 2.0.6. Typically, I use it  
via the command-line, and was in the process of running my new Virtual  
machine when I noticed something very interesting. The text in the  
information windows was accessible to Voiceover. Needless to say, I  
dug deeper into this and am happy to report that, with the exception  
of a few glitches, most of the Virtualbox GUI is accessible with  
Voiceover now. Most of the glitches involve lists, such as tables.  
Several of these aren't yet wrapped in accessibility information, and  
so are reported as unknowns. When you see an unknown in Virtualbox,  
try and interact with it. More often than not it's a list or control  
group that you can actually see the content of. Pop-up buttons also  
need work, but they are useable, you need to work your way down  
through each choice pressing enter on each one so that the pop-up  
button changes to the new choice. The pulldown menu's won't read when  
you press the pop-up buttons, so you need to work with them this way  
at present.
I'll report as I find more, but this is certainly a great start from  
Sun in making Virtualbox accessible for all users, and was a nice  
early present that I definitely did not expect :).
