Re: [orca-list] Orca master remains silent when entering nested folders in caja-mate

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

For me, Orca is not silent when the opened folder from step 4 is an icon
view. In that case Orca says "Downloads frame, icon view." That's all it
says because you're not on any icon and no item is focused. While I
could try to work around that, doing so might cause unwanted chattiness
because we don't know if an icon is about to tell us it is selected or
focused. But at least you know you're in the icon view.

For me, Orca is indeed silent when the opened folder from step 4 is a
tree view. The problem here is that Caja is saying the active descendant
changed (good) but it's also saying that the container is not focused
(bad). Lots of things tell Orca about changes, but they are typically
only of interest and should be spoken, when you're in the object. Caja
says you're not in the object, so.... <insert shrug here>

Once again CCing Alex because he's actively involved in MATE issues.

Sorry I cannot just fix this one for you!
