I have never experienced this bug (on Fedora or RHEL), probably for
one of two reasons:

1) I don't enable - or install - the disabilities-related
functionality (this does not mean that related bugs should not be
fixed, of course...)

2) I use KDE rather than GNOME. The default login manager remains GDM
though unless you do

# cat > /etc/sysconfig/desktop
DISPLAYMANAGER=KDE
^D
#

- check /etc/X11/prefdm to see what it does. Of course you can use KDM
for login and still run GNOME as your desktop, maybe it helps with
this particular problem (if the culprit is GDM).
