Do you mean the focus will just jump to the next widget when you want to focus into the notification area? This is because the "icon" in notification area (usually is a gtkimage) is not marked as GTK_CAN_FOCUS. You can see Yi's comments on the bug. The bug is not in gnome-panel. I'm making the patch for gtktrayicon/gtkstatusicon (draw focus indicator, handle shortcut keys etc.), and hopefully can catch up with 2.20. After this, all applications that usegtktrayicon/gtkstatusicon should work with notification area keynav.
I'm sorry, just booted into Ubuntu and saw the notification area in my top expanded edge panel with orca's flat review mode. When I tested Gnome some time ago, I was able to tab to the notification area and keyboard navigation would get stuck in there, so I thought that the notification area was gone in my Ubuntu install or something.
I'm not sure, but Ubuntu should be released in october, so I think that's Gnome 2.20.Furthermore, does someone know if the upcoming patch mentioned in the bug above could still make it into Ubuntu Gutsy?If you mean gnome 2.20, I'm trying.
Thanks, Li
