Well.... The more I think about it, the more my conclusion is that we
shouldn't use the pyatspi cache for children. It seems like it's too
easy for application and toolkit developers to make an accessible
application that has accessibility bugs due to how AT-SPI2 caching
works. So even if this developer fixes it for his app, I'm not convinced
I'd start using cached children again -- pending everyone's testing to
verify no unexpected side effects. And if I were going to fix something,
it would be the cache and/or Gtk+ depending on what I found after
digging further; not this particular app.
