No problem, I think it's a great value add, it was fun to work on, and
I personally have uses for it.

Good question. I've been working on this for a while, so I don't
remember specifically why I chose that version, but I think it had
something to do with one of the at-spi2 packages requiring 2.25.2 as
the minimum version, and that's what I went with. I should've checked
if there was a newer compatible version available. I'll respin this
with the newest stable release and resubmit.

There's also a cross-compile issue I spotted yesterday, so I'll work
on that as well.
