Re: [g-a-devel]Accessibility for mini-commander applet

[Marc Mulcahy <marc mulcahy sun com>]

Sounds right to me.  It seems like giving applets some sort of useful 
accessible names would be useful.  Mark and Padraig, is this something that 
the panel can do, or do the individual applets have to set their own 
accessible names?  Do applets export some sort of useful name apart from 
accessibility?  The tooltips which are exposed as accessible descriptions 
are helpful, but I don't think a screen reader for example, would always 
read an object's description by default but would read its name.

Regards,

Marc
