Re: [orca-list] Asking for Orca, WebKitGTK caret position

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

Hey Javier.

Part of the work I'm doing now for Gecko is ultimately to intended to
become generic document support functionality (including an
Orca-controlled caret for WebKitGtk, the bookmark functionality you
describe, etc.). At the moment, however, access to WebKitGtk content is
done through native navigation; Orca merely presents the new location.

So stay tuned!
