Yes, certainly. Which is one of the reasons why we made a11y switchable
at run-time. In the olden days, you had to log out and log in again when
enabling an a11y feature.

Which is why testing is invaluable.

a couple of GtkBuilder lines.

Aren't most of those fixed? Rui released a new 3.16 gnome-control-center
yesterday, and we're backporting those fixes for GNOME 3.14 and Fedora 21
as well.
