I've just tested this with Thunderbird 115.4.1 and Windows 11. using the keyboard and NVDA, I am able to navigate to the Status bar. There is currently less information in the Status bar than in previous versions of Thunderbird. But you should still hear "Status Bar" when navigating to the Status Bar. For my system, my status bar has information about invitations. I hear "Status Bar" and then "Invitations 38 Link." What I do see on my end is that the Status Bar has information that is not keyboard navigable, including the following I hear with mouse "You are currently online" and "Today Pane, Show Today Pane." What information are you used to hearing in the Status Bar that is no longer available?
