----------------------------+------------------------------------------
Synce version 57, Firefox uses new standard to provide content of webpages
to screenreaders, programs which blind users use to work with computer.
With new release of Torbrowser 8.0, it took new graphical interface from
Firefox 60, but even if it took its accessibility capabilities, they are
blocked somehow by main application. Nothing is accessible from web
content to basic browser control elements like alt menu or Connection
settings dialog.
Thanks to this bug, it is completely impossible to use Torbrowser with
screenreaders like NVDA or Jaws. Only way is to use proxi, which is
however not ideal solution compared to Torbrowser app configured to
provide no informations about its location.
