In the Java Editor Preference Page, for Text Font, the selected text font
field is not focusable.  Therefore, a screen reader like JAWS cannot tell
what is the current selected font.  This field should be changed to something
like a read-only text field instead.

This is a bigger accessibility issue with the inability to read controls. What 
we intend to do is to implement the IAccessible interface for the field 
editors so that they return the rest of the information when the button is 
selected.
