Excellent, going to test your changes in the today's nighty build. Thank
you.

Wow, you have read my intention to move to this control - there are several
problems with it and most of them you have now hopefully fixed.

You can run JAWS in 40 minutes mode without any license, of course you can
not perform very serious investigations with such limitations, but to check
something I shall point you on is possible in 40 minutes. Since I have a
license to JAWS and I am blind I surely shall perform any needed
investigations and surely shall point you at the problems with accuracy to
let you be as short in testing with JAWS as possible if needed because I try
to describe the situation so detailed that you do not need to make any
testing with screenreader yourself.

In any case the situation is surely becoming better from one step to another
and our effort surely leads to increasing the accessibility dramatically.
The items that can not be fixed by you I shall fix through scripts (JAWS in
first turn) but I am trying to increase the original accessibility because
there are some screenreaders that do not have script support at all and we
can not change anything in them and the people using them also need to get
the software accessible.

Thank you.

Serge.
