As I said, the idea of a screen reader is that a blind user could use a Desktop like any other user. > - And what operation (like traversing/searching) are required on desktop > items? I don't understand that question. But if you are asking about what built-in feature is required on the desktop items to traverse/search it, one of the most importants is keyboard navigation.
