Description Rochelle Raccah 2001-10-29 23:19:14 UTC 
From a discussion with the a11y team:

WizardDescriptor:
http://ui.netbeans.org/docs/wizards_styleguide/wizard.html
    An array of innerPanes are passed to WizardDescriptor and each innerPane
should have accessibleDescription related to content of innerPane.  This means
each WizardDescriptor.Panel's  return from getComponent() will be used to set
the description.

    In addition, the open ide core support will be responsible for concatenating
the step titles to the a11y description of the component.  That way, the
component could have a description which is used if it is shown in a gui
somewhere not in the context of a wizard and if it is put in a wizard, the step
title will automatically be added to the beginning of the description.

Accessible description of wizard dialog is composed from step title
and accessible description of the step
(WD.Panel.getComponent().getAC().getAD()).
