[a11y] Update notifier not accessible

Bug description:
The update notifier bubble that pops up when an update is available does not 
get read out with screen readers like Orca. Once an update is savailable it is 
also not possible to activate the update manager with the keyboard from the 
gnome panel.

This has been discussed at lenth on the orca mailing list, starting with Cody 
Hurst writing: "I want to know if accessibility to the notification area is 
possible. Since I have some vision to make out popups and windows but nothing 
in them. I see littlewindows near the notification area, but orca does not seem 
to read the information when arrowing through it. There might be updates or 
icons there I need to click on. Am I doing something wrong or am I correct to 
say it is inaccessible." (The list archive is here: 
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/orca-list/2006-July/thread.html but I guess 
there is some general Gnome list update problem ATM). 

We expect the problem is that update-notifier is not transmitting any useful 
AT-SPI information. I'm waiting for an update to become available so I can 
check this with at-poke ;)
