JAWS reads parent shell focused element when opening dialog. That is visible in Eclipse 3.5-3.7 at least.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
0. Run JAWS 12
1.Open Eclipse
2.Place focus on any view, e.g. package in Package Explorer
3.Open any dialog, e.g. Preferences via menu

Actual: JAWS reads:
leaving menu <previously focused element> <dialog>
e.g. "leaving menu tree view org.eclipse.jdt one of two. Preferences dialog..."

Expected: JAWS should read:
leaving menu <dialog>
e.g. "leaving menu. Preferences dialog..."

Note that this problem is in SWT dialogs only, i.e. if I open some system dialog from Eclipse with steps above (e.g. via Open File...) everything will work fine

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.
