a11y: Allow the screen reader to announce status changes #225

Closed cwendling closed 2 months ago

cwendling commented 2 months ago

Make the equation status the description of the equation entry as well so the screen reader can notify the user when it changes while the entry has focus.

Fixes #223.

(alternative to #224 that I like better)

@lukefromdc Thanks for the test in any case.

I unfortunately don't really know what to say, because normally if you didn't remove bits manually the ATSPI bus should work fine, but well… would require some debugging I guess, but I don't yet have ideas from the top of my head.

If anybody else is able to test that would be nice indeed :)

As there has been no news for 2 weeks, and @lukefromdc tested the non-a11y case successfully (and I obviously tested both), I'm going ahead and merging this.
