Jean-philippe, Samuel, possible backporting for bookworm-backports (or 
the proper stable branch if an user not using stable-backports 
repository) the 2023. october 23 added patch with Samuel doed?
Few hungarian users tested the latest Trixie branch available patched 
libvte2 package version in bookworm, braille-display navigation is works 
perfect the patched version. :-):-)
If this is possible (and does not violate the package maintenance policy 
of the official Debian stable branch), please make this patch available 
for either the stable-updates or the stable-backports branch, because 
the accessibility of the graphical Terminal is greatly improved by the 
patch. For visually impaired users, apart from the console (if they use 
e.g. Speakup and Espeakup, or Fenrir or Speechd-up screen reader on the 
console), libvte2-based terminals are the only option to use the command 
line in the graphical session for barrier-free use for inputting 
commands (gnome-terminal, mate-terminal, xfce4-terminal, etc.).
I apologize if I may have written some expressions incorrectly, I am not 
a Debian package maintainer or a Debian developer, unfortunately I do 
not have the right rights to upload the backported package, otherwise I 
would be happy to do this task.

Best regards:

Attila Hammer
