Keyboard support was not mentioned there but is also an important

I don't believe anyone has voiced plans for adding accessibility features
to the current implementation of the setup package chooser. There are a
couple of people (including me) working (slowly) on re-implementing the
chooser completely using standard Windows controls, which will support
keyboard interaction, screen readers, etc, automatically.

Thanks, that sounds very nice. BTW are you using wxWidgets (which is crossplatform and L-GPL) for this?

Kind regards,
Lennart
