When reviewing a code fix for JDK-8037477 I became aware that code in com.sun.java.accessibility.util may need to be modified to use invokeAndWait to make sure accessibility methods are called on the EDT. The code should be reviewed to see if any changes are needed. If any changes are needed be aware of the code changes done for JDK-8037477 which support the use of multiple AppContexts as recently is the case for a JNLP scenario.
