Dante, when working through accessibility issues it is helpful to frame their
behavior as keyboard only navigation. Don't use the mouse. Meaning F10, F6 and
some mix of TAB and Cursor.
Done that way it exposes weaknesses in the underlaying UI that mouse
pointer/click navigation obscures.
For accessibility, the focus action--by keyboard movement onto a control, or
mouse (down or up)--triggers an "accessible event" whose labeling the Assistive
Technology is able to parse.
Jan-Marek provided [1] many of the accessible events (as focusable buttons) for
the elements panel for see also <a class="bz_bug_link

href="show_bug.cgi?id=65587">bug 65587</a>, but for some reason, on Windows at
least, the "accessible event" exposed is not matched to the control with UI
focus. Off by one so seems to be a logic error of some ilk.
I checked a 7.0.3 build on Fedora 33, none of the buttons in the Element panes
sounded an event in Orca, so seems bigger issues there compared to Windows
builds.
