I only caught this now since I started using new Thunderbird builds again. We're no longer creating accessibles for the Addressing widget in the Message Composition window in Thunderbird. The combobox and its items aren't read at all, and the label for the edit field for the address is missing the label.

STR:
1. Start Thunderbird.
2. Hit CTRL+N.
3. You land in the To: address textbox.
Expected: Your favorite screen reader should say "To: edit" or something similar.
Actual: Only "edit" is spoken.

4. Shift+TAB once to select a different address label.
Result: No speech at all.
Expected: It should be announced that you're now in a combobox and that "To:" is selected.

The first build this occurred in is version 3.0a1pre (2008012203). The regression range is http://bonsai.mozilla.org/cvsquery.cgi?treeid=default&module=all&branch=HEAD&branchtype=match&dir=&file=&filetype=match&who=&whotype=match&sortby=Date&hours=2&date=explicit&mindate=2008-01-21+01:00&maxdate=2008-01-22+05:00&cvsroot=/cvsroot
The hierarchy is not correct.

This is what I see:
list
  list item
    unknown (????)
      lable "To:"
      menu "To:"
        ...
    autocomplete (labelled by "unknown")
      push button
      entry

The correct one is:
list
  list item
    combo box (label for "autocomplete")
      menu "To:"
        ...
    autocomplete "To:" (labelled by "combobox")
      entry "To:"

I believe it's related to bug 395699.

Thanks Ginn.
