This bug is for 3.6.1.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #233579 +++

Run the ControlExample and select the Tree or Table.
Select the SW.CHECK style, turn on Multiple Columns and Header Visible
The Checkbox column has no name and is read as "SortButton" by VoiceOver.

I don't see any difference in 3.6.1 when I apply this patch.   :)
(I do see the difference when I run from HEAD for 3.7).
So there may be something missing.
However, don't worry about it, because I don't think this is important enough to get into 3.6.1 accessibility because the only way to get VoiceOver to speak the header for column 0 is to hover with the mouse.

FYI, SSQ and I had a look at the 3.7 change as well (to try to understand what the 3.6.1 change wanted to do) and we found a 1-pixel bug (I created Bug 323535 for it).

That was expected. I didn't put the visual change for column 0 into 3.6.1.

Okay. Yeah, I did notice that you can't navigate into the header view.
