Could you please file a bug against Fedora for that and also this one:

Doing the right stuff w.r.t. brltty needs to happen at the distro level.

GNOME Shell does, unfortunately, include many unnamed panels that show
up in flat review. It is on the GNOME Shell accessibility developer's
to-do list to fix that. I'll see if I can filter some of those out to
make things less painful in the meantime.

This is a known issue. When no object has focus, there are no accessible
keyboard events emitted. In other words, Orca has no idea you pressed
anything. Orca needs to know you pressed keys in order to know you gave
an Orca command. Unlike the flat review issue, this is not something I
can hack around.
