Description: fix accessibility on XCB when running as root Accessibility actually works when running applications as root, but we would never properly connect, since the enabledChanged signal would be emitted from the constructor in this case. So after connecting the signal, check the value by hand to make sure not to miss the notification. . Only applications running as root would be affected, because all other applications would go through the asynchronous pattern of getting the bus address from dbus instead.
