[nvda] What would it take for a graphics dictionary

Hello,
There was a question about nvda and outlook express and the status of messages, 
and the answer someone suggested is that it is done with graphics. This leads 
me to the question, if it is graphics, are the other screen readers doing it 
through graphic dictionaries, and what would this take to be implemented in 
nvda? How do they identify different graphics? Surely not just with a list of 
graphics and an associated text description, or is it really that basic (and if 
so how do you stop it swamping your HD?)

So how valuable would a graphics dictionary be, and how many uses would it 
have? Considering that is it something that needs further consideration at the 
moment, or can it wait? I know there are certainly other areas which will 
improve the usability of NVDA, I would just like to get an idea of what will 
yield the best results for the time spent on it, so an idea of the priorities 
and where a graphics dictionary is in the list.
