I also have some vague recollection that the state of Massachusetts migration to OOo was rejected because of the lack of accessibility tools at the time, a requirement under that state's procurement laws. So the topic is an important one, especially if LibreOffice wants to get a foothold in US government institutions.

The ODF format itself also needed better accessibility. So the ODF committee at OASIS created an Accessibility subcommittee to tackle the issue: <http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=office-accessibility>.

There are a number OpenOffice.org/LibreOffice bugs related to ODF accessibility features, for example: * Image title and description that disappear after adding a caption in Writer:
   <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32137>
* Image title and description that disappear when you modify the image anchor in Writer * Image title and description are not exported when exporting PDF from Impress:
   <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34135>
