[Qt-interest] QtAccessible - anyone else having issues?

Is the current status of QtAccessible in 4.5.2 supposed to be good?  Doing 
some Internet searching, it seems Virtual Box (which uses Qt) and a few 
other Qt-based products are having persistent difficulty with QtAccessible.

My current issue is that the Windows JAWS screen-reader version 10.0.1142 
insists on inserting the word "Edit" in front of all controls, e.g.  when I 
tab to set focus to an "Unlock" button in my dialog, JAWS reads "EDIT Unlock 
button".

In fact, when I simply click that button with the mouse, JAWS says "Edit". 
In a standard Win32-based app, JAWS says "Unlock button" when I click the 
button with the mouse.

This is with the accessible\qtaccessiblewidgets4.dll put into the folder 
containing my Qt app.exe.

Thanks,
David
