Hey, I've spent the last night poring through gail bugs and code, and came to the conclusion that we need to face the tough reality that the state of a11y in GTK+ is sadly declining. There were years old patches in bugzilla which fix pretty obvious bugs; on top of that, I've fixed at least one bug that would lead to instant segfault in the file chooser when a11y is turned on.
I think we need to start over on the gail implementations, essentially. Now, we obviously can't do that by throwing away all we have now and start from a blank slate. The only way this can work, imo, is to move implementations from gail to gtk 1-by-1 and fixing them up in the process. I wonder if we can come up with some plan for how to organize that practically. The current state of affairs cannot be useful for anybody. While I was digging at this with accerciser last night, it would let me poke things for a bit, but as soon as I look back at the code, accerciser would lock up hard, sometimes freezing random other applications in the process...
