Depending on the AT in use rows are not apparent to AT users.
However, in the case that a row is not apparent, the concept of an
"item" is likely also not apparent. For example, is the "Remove this
item" button or checkbox at the beginning or end of the item?
I would argue that users should be expected to have reasonably recent
technology, we cannot code against JAWS 4.5, but at the same time rows
aren't fully apparent on OSX 10.5.6 with Voiceover and Safari 4beta,
so I'm not sure what an alternative solution would be.

I would think "Remove" as a heading is fine; I would put "Remove
this item" as a title for the checkbox, since rows aren't always
meaningful to persons who are blind.

The UI in the generic Section Info tool is quite different. It is a
checkbox in the Remove column. The user then needs to click a
Remove Sections button once they have selected the sections. Still
"true" is just wrong and there should be a title attribute on the
checkbox. However, wondering if "Remove this row" is the right
thing for it to say in this case.
I've enclosed a screen shot of the actual component.

I'd say it's worth sharing because it could be confusing to hear
"true". Plus it looks really easy to fix.

Nice patch! Just a quick question about it...
While our bSpace Section Info page is just a mockup, it's based
on a real user interface in Sakai. Given this, I'm wondering if
this issue might be something we should also share upstream with
the Sakai community? It's likely a really easy change to the
Section Info tools's markup.

cool, thanks. If you would assigned that bug to me, I'll
review and check in the patch.

Hi,
Last week I conducted user testing with 2 JAWS users on
the bSpace implementation of Inline Edit. Here is the
wiki page with results (please note the wiki page is a
work in progress):
http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Simple+Text+Inline+Edit+User+Testing+-+Round+3+Results
A bug that came up is that when you tab to the 'remove'
button to remove a row, JAWS reads "true", which is not
meaningful to the user.
Here is a patch that gives each button the title "remove
this row".

Thanks,
Alison
