[Bug 682235] Re: Implement caret navigation
Ping? Orca users are once again asking me about access to Gwibber. It
would be beyond awesome if Gwibber could enable caret navigation.

Title:
Implement caret navigation
Status in Gwibber:
New
Bug description:
The way users who are blind typically interact with and read displayed
text is to move focus to the widget and then, if necessary, arrow
around. As they move the caret, their screen reader announces the unit
of text moved to.
Because Gwibber uses WebKitGtk, and WebKitGtk is remarkably
accessible, if you implement caret navigation for the displayed status
updates, it will be trivial to add support for Gwibber in the Orca
screen reader.
Thanks in advance!
