Hey all.

Consider the following menu (it's Thunderbird's Help menu)

Help Contents
Troubleshooting Information
Release Notes
Restart with Add-ons Disabled
About Thunderbird

There are five items, and Orca currently presents their position and count
(for those of you who have that option enabled) as:

Help Contents. 1 of 5
Troubleshooting Information. 2 of 5
Release Notes. 3 of 5
Restart with Add-ons Disabled. 4 of 5
About Thunderbird. 5 of 5

I assume you all agree that this is correct, given the information I have
provided. But it turns out this menu has non-navigable separators in them.
What I see on screen is:

Help Contents
Troubleshooting Information
Release Notes
<separator>
Restart with Add-ons Disabled
<separator>
About Thunderbird

Each separator appears as a low-contrast, thin, but still visible divider
which visually groups things. With this information in mind, is what Orca
presents currently correct? Or should Orca instead say:

Help Contents. 1 of 3
Troubleshooting Information. 2 of 3
Release Notes. 3 of 3
Restart with Add-ons Disabled. 1 of 1
About Thunderbird. 1 of 1

Please let me know what you think. Thanks!
