calebl's open shell accessibility proposal, omacom/omarchy#13212, exposes control roles, names, states and actions to assistive technology. As explicitly dated background, monsieur-mouton wrote on October 13 that inaccessible shell controls blocked a move to Omarchy and offered to test with Orca. The proposal requires Quickshell 0.3.2 or later to export the accessibility tree.
On October 20, diogochaves reported testing two plugins and finding that example placeholders such as 90 and Work were being used as field names, while some rows named through Qt's Accessible.name remained absent from the tree. calebl accepted the findings and said the patch would be incorporated after rerunning the fixture. The current proposal describes purpose-based field names and support for those plugin rows. The review is documented in omacom/omarchy#13212:issuecomment-6280602575 and omacom/omarchy#13212:issuecomment-6297729444.
calebl separately deferred a broader CursorSurface selection API change to a follow-up, while reporting that dialog actions no longer claim selection. The proposal remains open; the supplied review does not establish completed Orca testing.
