Um yes lets help the special software to help the special people but not to
actually make the full set of our software accessible.  That way we will
look good without having to do too much hard work.  I have no complaints
about that either.

LOL, you crack me up Sina. I'm really looking forward to you coming
out for our workshop next summer!

As for Oracle, they've been incredibly supportive of our team, so far
and have fixed a host of accessibility problems for us without head
cracking. They've helped us a ton with the debugger architecture,
various windows and behind the scenes stuff, and generally, have given
us more support than I ever would have expected. I really have no
complaints at all.

I guess the trick is that we always some with a really explicit list
of accessibility problems and such. So, I figured I would ask folks.
If people have some specific problems they'd like to see fixed, I can
always ask them about it.
