Hi Janusz,

not sure what we should do with all the information you provided below. 
It seems to me that you're happy with what we're doing. Is this correct?

I'm by far no expert on accessibility, and a lot of the details mean 
very little to me...

What I understood is that you're a happy VirtualBox user, and we like 
such reports. Far better than the usual "something doesn't work" mails 
we usually get.
