Re: [orca-list] Flag day for Orca

[Lorenzo Taylor <daxlinux gmail com>]

I just checked out the latest version and I find that Orca seems to eliminate 
some of the lag time I previously experienced, especially when opening the run 
window. The only trouble I am having now is the speaking of blanks in 
Thunderbird when reading the message list. A message in the list is now spoken as:

Starred column header blank blank Has Attachment My message blank John Smith 
blank 2009-9-30 00:15

and of course that's all on a single line if it wraps. The first strange thing 
is the announcement of a column header, not to mention the fact that it appears 
to be the wrong one, since the message is not starred and only has an 
attachment. However, this has been going on for some time so I won't go into 
great detail here other than to say that the announcement of a column header 
should be able to be turned off, since this presents too much verbosity and 
redundancy for me. The new problem is the announcement of all the extra blanks, 
which apparently is a direct side affect of the refactor. I don't notice it so 
far anywhere other than the Thunderbird message list, although that's where I 
noticed it first and it got so annoying I figured I should report it. I can file 
this as a bug report if that would help.

Thanks,
Lorenzo
