Re: [orca-list] 1st Orca issue: address bar in Firefox in braille

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

So I have updated Orca to handle Firefox Nightly's address bar better in 
braille. As long as you're really in the text of the bar, that is what 
Orca should show you in addition to speaking it. Hard to say if that's a 
bug in Firefox or just a slightly unexpected accessibility tree change. 
<insert shrug here>

Related: If Orca goes completely silent while you're in the address bar 
or popup, there's an excellent chance you wound up in the list of search 
engines at the bottom. That seems to not give us the events we need to 
present your new location. I just filed that here: 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1570482.

Thanks again!
