Hello, I would like to make a suggestion for the graphical Vim. When using Orca, a screenreader for the graphical desktop, I can't use GVim. Since the menu's and button's are written in GTK+, there are perfectly usable, but not the main text body. This is quite logical: GTK+ has built-in the ATK library to report information about the program directly to AT-SPI -> Orca. As my understanding is, it would be only necessary, that GVim reports the kind and the content of the text body (the actual opened file) to AT-SPI, using the AT-SPI library. There has just to be someone who has some experience with GTK and wants to help out.
There are several blind and visual impaired people who have suggested this, since they are forced to work on the command line (and the terminal is no real alternative with Orca). Actually, the missing accessibility in GVim is the reason for me to work on the console instead of working at the graphical desktop. I'd be really glad if someone could look into it.
