The problem described here does not affect blind users of NVDA.
When activating the linklist on a page containing a great number of links, the window containing the linklist is visually messed up.
The list itself hides the "Filter with", "Move to" and "Cancel buttons", and you can't see all text in the list itself because it is hidden by two vertical scrollers.

The fix proposed here applies to file virtualBuffers__init__.py and
does the following:

  • Fixes the listbox size to 500, 300 to have all the text always displayed and not hiding the buttons;
  • the "filter by" edit field has been moved above the listobx, which seems more logical since the content of this edit field conditions the content of the listbox;
    the "Cancel" button has been separated a bit from other buttons;
  • Finally the whole window has been moved a bit up left.

the code is based on latest trunk source code R4014 so could be used as is.
See attached file for source code.
