We don't have to fit all the tools - just enough for, say, blind users
to get by without human assistance. It would be nice to have some
numbers on memory usage, at the very least, so we can know why it's not
doable.

I think the live CD should definitely be accessible. But it would be
cool to have some support in the traditional installer too.

It's not just about individual users, but also about organizations that
have to comply with disability laws, and the bigger publicity picture -
a bullet point for the corporate types that shows that we're ahead.
