I strongly need some feedback about QT Accessibility because I need to understand wether it is worth spending my time learning QT or if I’d better pick up another framework and learn that. Accessibility is really critical for me and I hope te issues I’m experiencing (unable to tab through different widgets, unable to edit a QTextEdit or a QLineEdit widget text with my screen reader, etc) are not bugs in the QT framework.
