It appeared to me that since it seemed to use the Safari browser engine,
(an Apple product) that it would answer some of the accessibility
questions. When I saw it last, it was still in beta mode and therefore
maybe with some sort of tweak it could be made somewhat usable.
I guess we'll see what happens from here.

No no, JavaScript. They have their own JavaScript interpreter which
should be an improvement over the rubbish we have now.
Java and JavaScript are 2 very different things.

I thought since there was some discussion about the new Google
browser, The following message might be of interest.
I believe this might answer some questions as to the accessibility
or lack there of of this application.

is a brand-new browser from the search-engine giant. The software
is built on the same Webkit rendering engine as Apple's Safari
browser, but Google has taken its own path with Chrome, opting for
a stripped-down look that doesn't interfere with browsing and adds
several unique features such as draggable downloads, a
private-browsing mode, and a new JavaScript engine built from the
ground up.

Visually monitor your Internet connection to track exactly how much
bandwidth you are using, which is very helpful for ISPs that
provide caps on downloading or uploading. The interface won't win

This useful encryption tool's main purpose is to display the
passwords that your local Wi-Fi manager has stored, but it provides
a host of other useful information such as the Hex key, adapter
