on first look it seems this will be interesting.
Even if they are doing for NVDA (which is a good thing by the way
), if they manage to add accessibility to the widgets and custom
stuff like the example given, then it will apply to Orca as well.
I am filling this up for sure.

Just as relevant for Orca users than the NVDA users.

Subject: [nvda] Survey about inaccessible Content on Web Pages for
Firefox dev tools
Hi all,
It's been quite some time since I've posted here. Since I joined
Mozilla, I've been watching NVDA from the sidelines, helping out
where I can and contributing the odd NVDA patch here and there.
Today, I have a small request to make on behalf of Mozilla
accessibility.
Many web sites are inaccessible because they use custom page
elements that lack the accessibility of browser-native ones. You
have almost certainly run across this in your surfing: a page that
uses divs and _javascript_ to create a checkbox which NVDA doesn't
recognise, for example. Mozilla wants to improve this by
identifying these inaccessible elements in the Firefox developer
tools and helping web authors use standard ones—or helping them
add the right ARIA roles to make their custom elements accessible.
But identifying inaccessible custom elements is a challenge. The
approach we're investigating is to use machine learning, which
requires many examples. We would greatly appreciate your help in
finding them, by filling out this survey:

Thanks!
Jamie
