264 implementation. [76201]
266 * Added boolean return types to a number of IDL methods whose
267 corresponding cspi wrappers and ATK methods already had boolean
270 * Made Accessibility_StateSet inherit from BonoboUnknown as it should;
271 this was the main existing breakage in StateSet.
279 getStateName () and STATE_EXTENDED to allow extension of State API (already
282 AccessibleAction_getType () and AccessibleAction_getTypeName ().
284 need getBaseAttributes ()
285 for AccessibleText (available in ATK I think).
287 table: getVisibleRange
289 state: HEADER, etc. for spreadsheet cells
