Hi Willem, No, the Java Access Bridge for Windows dependency remains, because we don't have a supported accessibility API we can use in its place. MSAA doesn't do (anywhere near) enough. UI Automation isn't here yet, and imposes a number of difficult requirements (must be a .NET application, etc.).
