Description John Arthorne CLA 2012-11-02 10:59:42 EDT 
Windows Vista and above support a new accessibility API called UI Automation (UIA). We will add support for UIA in the SWT accessibility API. This will enable SWT to support screen readers that use either UIA, or the existing IAccessible2 API.

This work was deferred. If it is added back to the plan in future releases we will enter a new plan item bug.
