[Sebastien Bacher]

** Description changed:

- THe combo selectors on the Updates tab are missing a labelled-by
+ * Impact
+ 
+ The combo selectors on the Updates tab are missing a labelled-by
  relation to their header (the label on the left) which makes the option
  difficult to understand for screen reader users
+ 
+ * Test case
+ 
+ - activate the screenreader
+ - select Updates tab
+ - navigate through the widgets using the keyboard (using 'TAB' to cycle between the elements)
+ 
+ The focus should go through the combo options and read for each their
+ value as well as the corresponding label (the text on the left of the
+ option)
+ 
+ * Where problems could occur
+ 
+ The change adds an accessibility->labelled-by entry to the .ui for those
+ elements. If the relation was wrongly set an incorrect label could be
+ read for some of the widgets
