Yes, maybe this was a bit premature, there are a few crashers in KMail
(or rather Qt and the qt-at-spi bridge). I fixed some of them. As this
is a very new accessibility stack, bear with me :)
For password fields, currently orca simply doesn't echo anything any
more with later versions of qt-at-spi.
I'll look into sending a * instead, even though it's not high priority
for me right now.

Thanks for the feedback
Frederik
