Has anyone an idea how that's supposed to be done within wxWidgets ??

To Courmish: yes in wxwidgets, in the toolbar class you can give a label to each button and a flag when you create the toolbar to display or not the labels. That's the easy bit. Then you have the dimension problem and that's where i'm stuck. the tool bar is not in any sizer but if i add it there is a empty grey area which appears

(In [14902]) wx/interfaces.cpp: Add an option to display tool bar buton name. Warning hack inside. refs #495 (closed) close it for linux and win32

changed title from OSX Blind user compatibility to OS X Accessibility for the visually impaired

This title annoyed me. Replace it with the "politically correct" terminology :D

Although there is nothing wrong with "blind user" of course. Listen to George Carlins sketch on euphemisms.

changed title from OS X Accessibility for the visually impaired to Add accessible names to player controls

To confirm, buttons still lack accessible names in VLC 1.1.3. The buttons do have tooltip text, which is read by VoiceOver when focus remains on a button for several seconds.

Tested with OS X 10.6.3
