I may have grew impatient and simply moved to the next item before Orca was done speaking. The behavior is as you suggested, it does not only speak up to the ellipsis :) Dylan,

I couldn't help but notice that Orca only speaks up to where the text reaches the column boundary and gets ellipsized, which happens with lots of your album titles. It strikes me that one who needs text to speech won't be able to resize the columns, though, and the ellipses really only makes sense in a visual presentation anyway. Do you know if this is an issue with GTK in general or something that can be fixed on Banshee's end? Really nice work with the Braille part :) Nice!

I'll try to make sure those patches get into banshee trunk, as a way to express my gratitude. But don't hesitate to pester us if we're slacking ;) Eitan, thanks a lot for your work on this.
