Comment (by onionsoup):

 Thank you for working on this! Tor button and browser controls are now
 accessible again. However, it appears that web content is not being
 exposed to the screen reader, so where the website should be rendered,
 there's just something called "unknown". I'm not sure what the cause of
 that is, but it is across all sites. I tested with about:tor, youtube and
 wikipedia. I tested with Windows 7 using NVDA as a screen reader. To
 summarise, screen reader users cannot interact with websites, but
 everything that is not web content works.
