Hi,

Generally speaking, a Mac OS update has little or no effect on the 
accessibility of iWorks.  At least, I haven’t seen much of a difference going 
from snow leopard, to Lion, to Mountain Lion using the applications found in 
iWork 2009.  So I wouldn’t put to much hope in Mavericks fixing iWork 
accessibility issues.  I would cross my fingers for whenever Apple puts out a 
successor to iWork 09.

JMO.
