Accessible login prompt and i3 wm

[Linux for blind general discussion]

In Arch it's in the AUR, named qt-at-spi (lower case letters).

To install a package from the AUR (Arch User repository)
read this article from the Arch Wiki:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository

I just installed mumble in Slint to check, it doen't seem accessible
at all. Skint shpis Qt4, maybe you'll have better results with
Arch that ships Qt5, I don't know.

If Peter Vagner reads this post, he could shed more light
as he is the packager of qt-at-spi for Arch.
