Description Tod Creasey

In the tree view in the Show View dialog, views that are already open are shown greyed out and views that are not open are shown in regular text. There is no similar indication to a screen reader user. Such a user has no information. A screen reader user needs the same information that a visual user has.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

If the bug is still relevant, please remove the "stalebug" whiteboard tag.
