           Summary: [Gtk] atk_text_get_text() fails in entries when the
                    end_offset is -1
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Accessibility
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: joanmarie.diggs at gmail.com

Steps to reproduce:

1. Navigate to Google
2. Type "foo" in the search entry
3. Launch Accerciser 
4. Select the object of ROLE_ENTRY and get into the iPython console

   In [1]: acc.queryText().getText(0, -1)
   Out[1]: '' <--- wrong (should be 'foo')

   In [2]: acc.queryText().getText(0, 3)
   Out[2]: 'foo' <--- (everything else seems to work; just not an end_offset at
-1)

Also note that if you select other objects which implement AtkText (including
the object of ROLE_TEXT which is the descendant of the entry above),
atk_text_get_text(0, -1) works as expected.
