In case it's of interest, ARIA Toggle controls have been added to AccDC Bootstrap R1.2 at
http://whatsock.com/bootstrap
Which can be used to automate keyboard and screen reader accessibility for toggle controls. The functionality was tested using IE 8 and 9, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari using JAWS 12 and 13, NVDA, and Voiceover.
Also, keyboard accessible scrollable div controls are similarly available, which automatically calculate the offset difference of the first child node, and adds the following key commands: Left / Up / Right / PageUp / PageDown / Home / End for keyboard only users.
Additionally, a recursive processing bug for modals, popups, and tooltips, has been fixed. This would occur when activating a popup for example, then clicking another tab without closing it, then when returning to the Popup tab, the content would still be loaded, even though the object was referencing a different element. This is now handled automatically within the bootstrap module however.
Lastly, the Accordion module has been updated to provide smoother feedback for screen reader users by surrounding the content panel with an ARIA region, which occurs automatically.

I'm curious why this wasn't tested with JAWS 14?

I didn't have it installed at the time, but it does work in JAWS 14 from
prior testing though.
