Version: 3.4.1, Build ID: M20080911-1700

Steps To Reproduce:
1) Create a Web project with the JavaServer Faces configuration. 
2) Open faces-config.xml and switch to the Managed Bean tab
3) Add a bean (any bean)
4) Focus to the Remove button
5) Hit Tab. Focus will move to the Managed Bean tab of the editor

Since this tab is in the tab order and focus was just given to it, a screen reader should now say "Managed Bean". But Window-Eyes 6.1 says "custom control" and Microsoft Inspect Objects lists the name and value as "none [false]".

This is an accessibility issue.

Deferred due to lack of resources.
