From a discussion with the a11y team: DialogDescriptor: http://ui.netbeans.org/docs/ui_apis/dide/index.html If the innerPane passed is a Component, the component's a11y description will be used. In addition, the message type should also be used. If the innerPane is a String, the behavior will be the same as for NotifyDescriptor (see issue 17109). This is because sometimes DialogDescriptor is used instead of NotifyDescriptor just so custom options can be set.
will be handled by A11Y action team
Accessible description is composed the same way as in NotifyDescriptor (issue 17109).
