            Bug ID: 116542
           Summary: distinguishing between role LABEL and a new role
                    STATIC
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: samuel.thibault at ens-lyon.org

Description:
There should be a distinction between the LABEL role and the STATIC role, as
distinguished by ATK.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the print dialog
2. Open the "Details" part

Actual Results:  
The "Default printer" label has role label in accerciser.

Expected Results:
The "Default printer" label should have role static in accerciser.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Making this kind of text "static" helps the screen reader to know that this is
just information text, which is not used to label something else, and such text
appearing in a dialog box means it should be spoken. This was described 
briefly by Joanmarie in
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86661 .

To get this, we would need to define a STATIC role along the existing LABEL
role, which would be mapped to atk's ATK_ROLE_STATIC, and to IA2's
IA2_ROLE_TEXT_FRAME. GtkBuilder already defines a way to set the role of a
GtkLabel, so we can use that to fix the roles within .ui files.
