 Replying to [comment:8 lessbloat]:
 > 23560.2.2.diff adds the ability to select an item with either the space
 bar, or the enter key.  It also adds better focus styles to the items
 (especially in IE).
 Both key changes - thanks for that.

 I'm still having problems selecting with NVDA active but that's possibly
 down to how NVDA reacts to ARIA - I'll investigate further. If I use the
 NVDA 'pass-through' key then I can get it to select.

 One other suggestion for improved user experience for screen readers:
 Currently you are presenting the name of the image in the aria-label
 attribute. In the cases of the images in the test site they are matt4.jpg
 etc. But they could of course be DSC0011.jpg etc.

 How feasible would it be to pull out the individual titles for each of the
 images instead of the actual filename? That way, if I've added a
 meaningful title and/or alternate text when I upload the image then that
 will be externalised when I'm selecting the file to be included in the
 page.

 Cheers for what you've done here.
