When I open up a simple page and try to walk into the children by expanding tree
nodes (as opposed to dragging to target to an x,y location), it gets stuck and
won't open the ROLE_PANE node's children.

This regressted over a month ago. This reason we didnt' catch in with our
automated tests is that those only test the cross platform nsIAccessible layer.
They don't test the windows-specific MSAA/IAccessible layer, and that is where
the problem was.

Should we be doing some tests of that layer?
Brent please investigate w/Dharma adding some routine Windows tests to our routine
The accexplorer.exe tool in the MSAA SDK  can test both the x,y object report as
well as walking into the tree. It can also save the tree as a text file, which
we could use for comparison.

The inspect.exe tool can test the reporting of accessible objects associated
with events.
-- Verified on latest mozilla trunk(20021111). I am able to walk into pages with
AccExplorer. Marking verified.
