Hi,

Actually the widget doesn't announce itself as a combo box, but it is 
one. To open the search engines list (and settings), the user can press 
alt-down arrow key. So you can close the bug if you want, or rename it, 
so that the search bar widget to be identified as a combo box as well as 
an editing field, so that the screen reader enable the user to press 
alt-down arrow key to get the options.

Regards,
