Lucid and Accessibility options

Hi, I have been playing with Lucid Alpha 3 and I have come across a few problems and I don't know whether they are specific to the accessible install or Lucid as a whole.
The first issue is that once installed if you press enter to select the user to logon, enter the password and press enter again, metacity crashes and you are taken back to the GDM login screen, the second time it seems to work, and if I use the mouse it works first time. I have checked this many times and it always happens. This is with the accessible login enabled.
Secondly although Orca talks through the Ubiquity windows, once the installer is running Orca stops speaking and though I could force it to speak by alt+tabbing (it said "left alt") it never spoke again - so if I was blind I wouldn't know the installation had finished.
I don't know if anyone else has had these problems. Luke has done a great job on getting the accessibility to work out of the box, and it certainly makes things a lot easier for the Vinux Project, as now all we have to do is add speakup support and all of the other keybindings and packages we add to the basic Ubuntu distro.
