    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      From the support request:

      We have several blind users who use screen reading software in order to use JIRA. The new JIRA 4.1.1 has an issue where the screen reading software cannot "see" the edit comment hover item. Do you know if you can disable the hover over and make the edit link stay....I assume if it stays as a link the screen reader will be able to read it.
