With the new updates tree view, Orca is correctly reading the name of each update (and whether it can be expanded), but it never reads the toggle cell in the Update column. This means a vision-impaired user has no way of knowing which updates are selected and which are not. This is a regression from Ubuntu 12.10. We need to convince the screen reader to mention whether an update is toggled.

In addition, the screen reader currently says "Image" for every cell in restart_column, even when (99% of the time) there is no image visible. This is noisy and unhelpful. Instead, Orca should say nothing for this cell, unless the restart required icon is being displayed, in which case it should say "Restart required".

These issues were observed Using Orca 3.7.0.94 and GTK+ 3.6.2 in Ubuntu 12.10.
