[nvda] Re: NVDA and the System Tray

To everyone, the only screen reader that that i found that worked the
best with capturing all of the "system-tray" buttons in a list,
shockingly enough is the "Hal" screen reader, the one screen reader
which still does not do firefox support. Even System Access 3.0 will
be doing Firefox support when it comes out during the summer time.
Windows+b for the tray is working fine for me, so i say no diallog
should be made myself, more keystrokes to learn for one.
