While using a screen reader like JAWS or NVDA:

1. Open the Open Resource dialog (e.g. by press Ctrl+Shift+R)
2. Tab to the context menu button (with the down arrow) next to the Open button.
3. JAWS reads this as "Graphic 321 button" and NVDA reads it as "button". In either case, a screen reader user is not alerted of the purpose of the button.

This fails item 2.2/2.3 on the accessibility checklist and must be fixed for 3.8. Probable fixes include giving the drop-down an accessible name, and making sure it gets the accessible focus. Where is the code that creates this drop-down button?
