Luke is basically correct from what I recall looking at the code some time
last year. The other solution would be to put the GTK stuff on the main
thread and move the copying to another thread.

Hy,
In precise if I run usb-creator-gtk or gksu usb-creator-gtk command,
the USB Startup Disk Creator application UI interface is
inaccessible with Orca.
What happened this application? This application not using a
standard Gtk3 UI interface?
So far as I understand it, it has to do with threading. USB creator used to be
accessible, however when you tried to copy an Ubuntu image to a USB drive, USB
creator would freeze if orca was running. THis is a bug in GTK do to with
threading and accessibility. To work around it, the GTK UI was moved to another
thread, however this has made USB creator inaccessible.
What I *think* is going on, is that the atk bridge module is being loaded in
the main thread, even though the GTK ui is in another thread, so, the atk
bridge module cannot find any GTK UI to interface with. I suspect the solution
is loading the atk bridge module in the same thread as GTK, but I haven't
worked out how this could be done yet.
