I've added accelerator properties to the edit and combo box controls in
r19443 so your screenreader should now be able to catch them.
But the labels are clearly visible, no idea why that isn't enough.

That won't happen any time soon. As I said before, that's very complicated.
I've searched the web to find out how others have done this. The only
thing remotely usable I found was JS Install:
http://www.accessibleprograms.com/js_install/js_install.htm
Seems even people who are paid to do this (i.e., with much more time
than I have) have big problems with this:
http://www.freelists.org/post/jawsscripts/an-installer-for-jaws-scripts,46
So how about we just add a link to the scripts to our download page and
have users install them manually?
