I'm testing some accessibility support for the new 
property sheet using a speech reader.

Every time the main window receives focus, I get (three
times - probably something in the window system):

"NetBeans IDE Dev left parens build dollars left curly 
brace buildnumber right curly brace right parens dash 
source editor [gurgle] ColorPicker [gurgle]"

Surely we don't need that much text in the accessible
description!

No plan to work on that, sorry.
