I noticed that the Tree View checkbox isn't in the tab order for either
triggers or aliases.
This makes it impossible to find for screen reader users who rely on tabbing through a dialog to
find its controls.

I thought I could reproduce that and then I couldn't. :-)

The treeview comes in at the end of the tab order, as that is added conditionally after all the other controls. What may work is to temporarily shift into list view (Alt+W), tab to the control, and then shift back (Alt+W again).

However the control is indeed created with the tabstop style.

The control (either tree or list) is fine and is created in the tab order. The checkbox which is attached to alt w is not.
Once I found that alt w was the shortcut for that checkbox, it works just fine. I just can't
get to that checkbox by tabbing through the dialog.

Ah OK. Well now you know how to activate it, and I've changed it to be in the tab order for version 4.66
