Hi, I'm fixing issues in the Java JList a11y support for Mac. When
focus is put on a list with no selected list items I hear:
"list, no items selected, unknown, you are currently on a tab group"
In this case the list is in a page tab of a page tab group. The
"unknown" is likely because the list is unnamed. I don't think it
matters that there are no items selected.
What do I need to do to get VO to report that the focus is on the list
and not on the page tab?
In this case the VO black box is on the page tab group.
If I shift tab back a few times until focus is on a checkbox in the
focus chain prior to the page tab group and then shift tab back into the
page tab group (which contains the list) the black box remains on check
box but I hear the same above text. But I can deal with that black box
issue later. I just mentioned it in case it might be helpful.
I logged some of the calls and see this at the initially mentioned case:

I killed the app at this point. What might I be doing wrong or what
logging might I need to add to debug this?
