Comment (by sharonaustin):

 Replying to [comment:1 afercia]: Amazing insight into the problem--the
 explanation is greatly appreciated--as of course, is the patch.

 This patch worked for me using Firefox 32.0.3 NVDA 2013.3.  NVDA read out
 loud the content that was previously unseen by NVDA in the "Text Editor"
 ---but further testing is required, there is some level of inconsistency
 with the sequence of steps I can't track down.

 1. It would read content in the Text Editor of the TinyMCE after the page
 was updated.
 2. If I clicked by mouse to the Text Editor, I would then have to click to
 the editor, and NVDA would read the first of two paragraphs, but not the
 second one.
 3. The same thing "seems" to be true when I tab to the Text Editor field,
 also (using the backwards tabbing thing)

 Example of what I'm talking about (In the "Text Editor" Screen of the
 TinyMCE editor):
 This page: http://red-hound.com/trunk29802/trunk/src/?page_id=14
 NVDA reads the first text, all the hyperlink information, but not "A
 paragraph", "A second paragraph", or "A third paragraph"

 So, great success, but I don't think it is quite complete success yet.
 Thanks so much for the patch!
