Regarding a dialog box

Hi all,



Greetings from India!



I just encountered a dialog box having 3 buttons along with some information
in plain text wherein JAWS says only 'Dialog' as it is launched. For me,
this is a bug, as it does not automatically read out the main information in
this dialog box; however, I can easily navigate through the same using Arrow
keys. But according to my observation, an accessible dialog box is
automatically read in full by JAWS. Reading only 'Dialog' does not make any
sense. What do you think? Should this be a bug? At least a miner bug?
