Yay indeed. <smiles> As for the following:

That sounds like it might be what's described in:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=924915

And if that's indeed what you're experiencing, it's not something I
can fix in Orca. As you'll see in my opening report on that bug, I was
able to make Thunderbird go completely non-responsive for 5 seconds on
a performant system without Orca running.

This next one on the other hand:

I'd like to know more about and look into. Is this something you can
reliably reproduce, and if so could you provide me with the steps to
do so?

Thanks!
