Hey Attila, all.

Regarding the sudden appearance of 'Primary' where one would expect 
'Control':

Now I do. I had a chat with the Gtk+ Accessibility developer. There was 
a change in Gtk+ which apparently is a portability enhancement. As was 
explained to me, it "means ctrl on linux and command on the mac and 
dunno what on windows (probably ctrl, too)". In other words, the change 
is not an accessibility change; but we are getting new information 
exposed to us as a result of that change, and we are passing it along to 
you. We want and need Gtk+ to expose the old form back to ATs. Doing so 
would be a lot more reliable than us trying to guess the right 
modifier(s). And besides, Gtk+ knows the right modifier(s). Therefore, I 
have requested they expose it/them to us in the following Gtk+ bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=666463

Take care.
