Yes, but only by making the checkbox and radio button options equally inaccessible to all respondents (e.g., not using a fieldset/legend). We would never deliberately neglect accessibility standards, standard HTML markup, and common sense to render a very basic web form inaccessible and non-compliant with accessibility guidelines just so all respondents are presented with the same poor experience. We realize that the lack of support for fieldsets may affect the viability of those few pieces of data provided by Window-Eyes users. It is untenable for us to instead break it equally for everyone else. Instead, we're opting to educate Window-eyes users about the issue and promote a future fix.
