Comment 1 Petr Hrebejk 2005-02-01 17:22:11 UTC 
The first two things are cleare nonsense. It works. Please don't rely
on the tool only also chack whether the report really makes sense.

Sorry, I don't have the knowledge to judge if the report makes sense
or not.
Comment 3 Petr Hrebejk 2005-02-02 08:39:55 UTC 
Are you telling me, that you are not able to go to the wizard took at
it and see that both lists can be selected using a mnemonics on a
label? What's wrong. :-)

First two thigs are about "Components with no LABEL_FOR pointing to it".
And I have no clue what it really means in UI. It might be used e.g.
by screen readers.

If the tool reports missing or clashing mnemonics I check that by hand
of course.

Hmm, neither do I. I'm not saying you should. I just think there shold
be someone who has the expertise and knows what has to be done to make
the IDE accessible. The tool apparently isn't the right "person".
