Oops..sorry. :-)
Comment 3 Jens Petersen 2006-03-29 13:17:17 UTC 
Tooltips doesn't help btw does it?
Comment 4 Lawrence Lim 2006-03-29 13:52:09 UTC 
That may increase the complexity because it requires mouse-over to reveal the
tooltips?
Comment 5 Jens Petersen 2007-11-08 01:34:14 UTC 
Is this still important for QE automated testing?
Comment 6 Lawrence Lim 2007-11-20 01:10:02 UTC 
I think it is a good feature worth considering for F9 with QT4 will support
AT-SPI on X11 Systems.
