Comment (by Joanie):

 The fact that the toggle button is unlabeled is.

 Doesn't look like it would be too hard to fix, however.  As a quick
 experiment, I just added this to pidgin_status_box_init():

         AtkObject *obj;
         obj = gtk_widget_get_accessible (status_box->toggle_button);
         atk_object_set_name (obj, _("Foo"));

 Now, when I Tab to give focus to the toggle button, Orca (a screen reader)
 announces that focus is on the Foo toggle button.  Of course, rather than
 "Foo", it might be better to call it "Status" -- or better still to set
 the name based on the currently-displayed status. :-)

 It would be awesome if y'all could do something along those lines.
 Thanks!!
