Hello,

 �

I discovered an accessibility issue in PgAdmin: 

All toggle buttons (eg. used to grant or revoke a role’s rights or adjust the 
app’s behaviour in preferences) are labelled as toggle buttons and their 
yes/no, true/false state gets reported correctly, but do not have the 
appropriate WAI-ARIA roles (role="button" and aria-pressed="true/false").

Therefore, they do not actually behave like toggle buttons (to a screen reader, 
they are simply text). Moreover, the buttons only respond to mouse-clicks on … 
I don’t even know, because my braille display only shows empty space at the 
spot where one would need to click. 

 �

Is there, perhaps, a keyboard shortcut/mnemonic to toggle the buttons? Or do 
all of you simply use the mouse?

 �

If the latter: Is the pgadmin-hackers mailing list the right spot for feature 
requests/patch requests or is there a GitHub repository where I could post the 
issue?

 �

Making the toggle buttons respond to keyboard actions (such as clicks using the 
space bar) has the advantage that it includes blind users as well as users 
struggling to handle a mouse, or those who simply prefer using the keyboard.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Kind regards,

Tim
