Hello Markus, Stuart,
And to add to the excellent point Markus made, I'm already aware of that
problem (as well of some others) and wanted to start fixing it. Of
course any helping coding hand is more than welcomed ;)

Hey Stuart,
the best way to make sure that development pays attention to
accessibility is by staying active when developers ask for design of
new dialogs and early testing of the implementation. Early feedback
that the accessibility part is suboptimal makes it easier for us to
fix it before we ship it.
So as you picked the new template manager as an example. It is a GSoC
project from last summer and has been discussed on this list beginning
in summer last year and I think early testing of the feature in master
began around october or november. Testing such a feature at that point
and making sure that accessibility roles are correctly implemented
makes sure that the developer implementing it still has enough time to
fix it. Now it is nearly 6 months later and the developers who were
working on it are already working on other tasks and it might take
some time until they are able to pick it up again.
That said it is still good to report it in bugzilla and making us
aware of our suboptimal accessibility support in new features.
Thanks a lot for your effort rising awareness of these problems. If
you think it is a general problem that we are not paying enough
attention on accessibility support in new dialogs it would be nice if
you could give us some examples so that we can discuss how we can
improve our workflow in the future.
Regards,
Markus
