            Bug ID: 506506
           Summary: The orca screen reader should read KRunner, search
                    actionable item
    Classification: I don't know
           Product: kde
      Version First unspecified
       Reported In:
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: nuno69a at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Currently when using KRunner or the kDE's search facilities the Orca user is
not informed of the result which will be invoked by pressing the Enter key.
Given the example
1. Press META key
2. Type "Fire" to start matching Firefox
3. Press Enter

A sighted user knows right away what they are activating because the item is
highlighted.
As it currently stands a blind user needs to press the Down arrow once so that
Orca focuses the list of results, thus reading the focused item which adds
unnecessary friction for cannonicaly rapid task which is keyboard-based
workflow of KRunner and the like.
