The bug has been assigned to Matthias H=F6lzer-Kl=FCpfel.=20

David, have you contacted him about this?

Matthias, is there a reason why the bug still exists? Is it fixed in 3.1=20
HEAD, or will you fix it, or should I forward this to kde-devel to ask=20
whether someone can tell me where to look for fixing this bug before 3.1=20
is out? (I have very few experience of KDE programming.)

The people currently working on KDE accessibility programs have very few=20
knowledge of other areas of KDE. We simply don't have enough KDE=20
knowledge to fix every accessibility bug we know of.

There is not much time left till KDE 3.1 is out, so I am not sure it will=
=20
be fixed till then - though it certainly should.

You are right - I use KDE 3.0.4, and it is still there.

This really needs to be fixed.
