Yes, some of them are. The real issue with users of accessibility is
the loss of access to the desktop caused by the change to at-spi2. At
this point, the next release of Debian will be less accessible than the
current release. As someone who depends on gnome accessibility, it's
hard to support something that will take away my access to the system.
To be fair, at-spi2 isn't the only thing that has broken gnome access.
Pulseaudio is another example of an app that breaks my access to the
text console. I have to remove it which results in a broken gnome.
There is still no definite date when gnome 3.x will return to the level
of access available in gnome 2.32. Posts on the
gnome-accessibility-devel list suggest it could be more than another
year before things improve.
When I did a search on bugzilla.gnome.org for at-spi2, I found 53 bugs.
The one that will probably be worst for me is:
