Summary: [a11y] Tables are read as empty and are not navigable in Voice Over

Description pmuesbeck 2015-04-23 21:28:08 UTC 
The table element in the IDE has no obvious way to interact with standard Voice Over commands (VOICE OVER + SHIFT + ARROW keys and VOICE OVER + ARROW keys). Voice Over does not read the contents of the table to the user and the table itself is read as “empty table”. There could also be a problem with clicking elements which could not be tested since the navigation did not work. An example for this can be found in Preferences > Keymap in the “Actions | Shortcut | Category” table.
