This control has a window class of TTntStringGrid.UnicodeClass?.
We need to know if this class is based on something like SysListview32? if so then we will need to write a Window NVDAObject for SysListview32 that allows to find out the currently focused item with out using MSAA. Or, can we find out if this class has any window messages we can use to find this kind of info out?
We of course could also get Skype to change this control to something more standard.
Failing all this, when NVDA gets display hooks we may have a chance of reading the control.


I've just tested Skype 4.0 and NVDA reads the List with the Hotkeys. Maybe a changed field in Skype 4.0.
