Hi Javier: Thank you for filing these bugs. Sorry it took me a while to look into this. What I'm seeing is this on my GNOME 2.20.0 system with Pidgin 2.1.1: * The status setting looks like a combobox, but is actually a toggle button pretending to be a combobox. * When you tab to the toggle button, Orca just presents that you are on an unpressed toggle button. * Pressing the space or return key will pop up the status options. You can press up/down arrow and Orca will read the items as they are highlighted. * Pressing the return key will select a status option for you and dismiss the list of status options. So, aside from being rather kooky in how they chose to use a toggle button to implement a combobox, I think the main problem we have here is that the toggle button doesn't seem to be appropriately labelled.

Is there a list of keystrokes out there? I've never filed a bug report, is someone going to f1le one, or should I go learn how?

My mom was over last night, I was trying to set my AIM status to away, and she said the only way to click on that button is with the mouse. There are no underlined keystrokes, and I too found that the button is unlabeled. I hope this helps, if you need anything else, just let me know.

This button presents two accessibility issues 1. The button is unlabeled. 2. You can access to the possible status' choices only if you click the button with the mouse, but not when you activate it with the keyboard. Anyone can confirm this in order to file these bugs? Thanks!

A friend wants me to do some irc with him. First off, there seems to be a combo box to sellect the protocal, but it'll only let me select aim. And, when I'm chatting with a friend on aim, my keystrokes interrupt the speech, so I miss half of the conversation. Any thoughts? Thanks!
