[NFBCS] How to get QtWebEngine to work like Electron apps

Hello,

I was wondering if someone could advise me on how I can get JAWS to
recognize QtWebEngine UI as being web browsers.

You know, JAWS does recognize Electron apps such as VSCode and Slack
as being glorified web browsers and thus allows navigating them as web
pages.

Currently, I am involved in a project that uses QtWebEngine wrapper
and Chromium rendering engine under the hood.

All Qt accessibility switches are enabled with Chromeium
--force-renderer-accessibility flag.

However, the latest JAWS does not recognize our application as being a web mode.

Any advice on how to tackle this issue would be so much appreciated.

All the best,

JooYoung
