// The BrowserAccessibilityState class is used to determine if Chrome should be
// customized for users with assistive technology, such as screen readers. We
// modify the behavior of certain user interfaces to provide a better experience
// for screen reader users. The way we detect a screen reader program is
// different for each platform.
//
// Screen Reader Detection
// (1) On windows many screen reader detection mechinisms will give false
// positives like relying on the SPI_GETSCREENREADER system parameter. In Chrome
// we attempt to dynamically detect a MSAA client screen reader by calling
// NotifiyWinEvent in NativeWidgetWin with a custom ID and wait to see if the ID
// is requested by a subsequent call to WM_GETOBJECT.
// (2) On mac we detect dynamically if VoiceOver is running.  We rely upon the
// undocumented accessibility attribute @"AXEnhancedUserInterface" which is set
// when VoiceOver is launched and unset when VoiceOver is closed.  This is an
// improvement over reading defaults preference values (which has no callback
// mechanism).
