Actually, I do have a bug report with a patch for GTK+ accessibility here:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617629
It is mostly an extension to pixbuf to add a description property, but
also a minor patch to gail to read them in pixbuf cell renderer. With
this patch, I was able to make Synaptic accessible, as well as several
other applications with minimal effort. However, I can't submit these
changes upstream if GTK+ wont support pixbuf descriptions.
This is simply the first of what I hope will be several accessibility
upgrades in GTK+ which I hope the developer Vinux team can help write
and test. But so far, I haven't been able to attract interest from
anyone with the authority to commit patches in the GTK+ team. My
current impression is that it is useless to try and improve GTK+
accessibility, because there is no champion on the GTK+ team willing
to work with us.
