Looks good to me on GnuPG-VS-Desktop-3.3.90.8-Beta-Standard.msi (3.3.3 betaversion)

This task is not really actionable. Moreover, it proposes a technical solution instead of just stating the problem that needs to be solved. There may be better solutions, e.g. in the Notepad I decided to move the focus to the message widget that contains the result to make the screen reader read the result.
• ikloecker added a comment to T7776: Kleopatra: NVDA reads parent window of error messages.
After studying the logs created by NVDA and its source code I strongly suspect that the problem needs to be fixed in NVDA. NVDA tries to avoid repeating the text of common ancestors of the old and the new focus object, but it fails to detect the Create OpenPGP Certificate dialog as common ancestor of the text edit field in this dialog and the Error (child) window.

• ikloecker changed the status of T7770: Kleopatra: Ensure that result of notepad operation is accessible from Open to Testing.
Solved by focusing the result message after the notepad operation is complete. I think that's an acceptable compromise for ensuring that users of assistive tools are informed about the result even if the focus is moved to a different UI element (which, in general, should be avoided because users can get lost).

• ikloecker added a comment to T7736: Pinentry: Show/hide button not accessible by keyboard.
The gold rule of tab order is that tab order follows the usual reading direction, i.e. line by line from left to right. If you press Enter after entering the password in the first input field then the focus should jump to the second input field.
