Yeah I was wondering about that I must admit dark because I tried to go on their forums and found the exact same thing as you did. I'll have to find his email address and try contacting him.

He pretty much indicated to me thathe was starting work on it, and it'll be in the first patch, so I'm hopefull that won't be long. perhaps another report to show him that people with screen readers (and indeed different screen readers), are playing the game would be helpfull, though obviously it needs keeping to a minimum. it's actually at points like this i really regret that the nielsbauer forum is down, sinse discussing these sorts of issues was exactly what that was for, and most of the debugging and fixing of the original compatibility mode in s4 was done there. I actually don't know why niels changed the forum into a blog, and then changed the blog into this weerd steam thing which i've not worked out at all (indeed it managed to crash ie8, though that might be a bug with the very recent version of supernova), personally I was quite happy witha propper forum. Beware the grue!
