Hello Jeff,

Thank you and yes I agree with you 100 percent. 80 or 90 percent of the time I live in the command line using programs such as VIM for development and executing software, or managing servers. I I am not sure but I think Gnome Desktop 3 is what is said to have began the problems with Orca and accessibility. I have not read enough to verify any of that.
