PS - Bug/RFE logged here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=545849.
If there are other specific problems that people know about, I really encourage them to log bugs. Otherwise, the team will likely not know about them and they will likely go unfixed. The current AT-SPI maintainer, Li Yuan, is *very* good and is remarkable in his abilities to diagnose and resolve problems.
