That one (tdf#115335 - "Formatted cell text is not exposed to assistive 
technologies") is indeed a good example and I'll try to get to that at 
some point before the LO 25.2 release.

That depends on the definition of "lowish". :-)

Naturally, once the issues with the apparently most straightforward 
fixes are addressed, everything else seems a bit less low hanging.

But the truth is that with our codebase, this is often hard to tell 
without doing an actual initial analysis of the individual issues, and 
my plan is to keep doing that.

Regards,
Michael
