Screen reader users (JAWS and NVDA) can use Insert + b to read the dialog text once it is expanded from the Omnibar. I tested in both programs and they work.
I fixed another issue which affects this issue too. Dialogs that appear next to the address bar (also known as bubbles) now get announced as soon as they appear.
Could we try and test again. I think the behavior is fixed now.
Steps:
1. Press Ctrl+Equals to zoom in.
2. Press F6 to reach the address bar.
3. Press tab to get to the zoom icon.
4. Press it using space and observe that both the percentage and the rest of the dialog is read, i.e. all the buttons.
