As the title implies, general overarching bug for GTK3 accessibility work in 4.8.
Current state of affairs: GTK3 accessibility seems to be non-working all together. Orca crashes and hangs when trying to read anything SWT on GTK3. GTK2 support works well until Mars (4.5) and then stops working reliably. There are bits and pieces that work well past Mars but nothing consistent.
Update: Basic accessibility should work now in SWT-GTK3. I estimate this will cover 80% of all use cases. I am in the process of opening other accessibility bugs for more fine-tuned issues, as well as evaluating the validity of currently open bugs. If you encounter an accessibility issue that isn't fixed and is currently not being tracked, please file a new bug and I will add it here as a dependency.
When time allows, would it be possible to investigate bugs #314996, #424983, #319467 and #318786? Thanks.
One more bug that could be investigated: #322396

Unassigning myself as this is an umbrella bug.
This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. -- The automated Eclipse Genie.
