Ted, in the past days I tried to ask about this issue on #a11y on GIMPnet. 
Unfortunately nobody had interest in this bug :(
I'll try contacting Willy Walker directly by email (he wasn't on IRC those 
days) but honestly I ignore his current status after Sun->Oracle.

Orca reads the info using the AT-SPI/ATK framework. Basically ATK
defines some "interfaces" (example a button "implements" actions
`press`, `release`, `clic` for AtkAction interface and statuses
`invalid`, `active`, `pressed` for AtkState interface) while AT-SPI is a
"bus" between client applications (Orca, GOK..) and provider
applications/libraries (GTK+/GNOME, Firefox, OpenOffice.org).

So, I suspect you should re-define some Atk interface, but honestly I
suppose is not trivial or "clean" to do :|


PS It wasn't in my intention insulting anyone, but simply report the current 
situation. Maybe rude, but IMHO true.
