[Bug 602877] [NEW] Position is not being updated when atk_text_set_caret_offset is used

[WaywardGeek]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

This bug was filed last year upstream:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=546068

We have a working, tested patch, but more investigation is going into
enhancing the new regression test case.  This patch isn't in Firefox
3.6, or 3.7.  However, this patch is critical for blind users who use
Ubuntu with Orca.  Without this patch, Firefox is basically unusable.
If this patch could be included for Ubuntu Maverick, that would be great
news for blind Ubuntu users.
