Hey
Normally all controllers are labelled, except the effect move
controllers witch have a simple sign on it, and the effect on/off
controllers, witch have , yea, a red/green light , only we use pango or
cairo to render the fonts, didn't now if that could be a problem for
orca. Also, we have add tool-tips to nearly any controller, could that
be a help for you, I guess not really ?

I guess it will be hard special for the effects, because you can
load /unload and move them in the chain. Are there special needs to make
labels accessible for ocra ?
