Hello,
�
I discovered an accessibility issue in PgAdmin:
All toggle buttons (eg. used to grant or revoke a role’s rights or adjust the app’s behaviour in preferences) are labelled as toggle buttons and their yes/no, true/false state gets reported correctly, but do not have the appropriate WAI-ARIA roles (role="button" and aria-pressed="true/false").
Therefore, they do not actually behave like toggle buttons (to a screen reader, they are simply text). Moreover, the buttons only respond to mouse-clicks on … I don’t even know, because my braille display only shows empty space at the spot where one would need to click.
�
Is there, perhaps, a keyboard shortcut/mnemonic to toggle the buttons? Or do all of you simply use the mouse?
�
If the latter: Is the pgadmin-hackers mailing list the right spot for feature requests/patch requests or is there a GitHub repository where I could post the issue?
�
Making the toggle buttons respond to keyboard actions (such as clicks using the space bar) has the advantage that it includes blind users as well as users struggling to handle a mouse, or those who simply prefer using the keyboard.
�
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Kind regards,
Tim
