 I really have problems to understand you. What are these access-keys
 you're referring to? Ordinary application shortcuts such as Alt+F to
 start special actions?

Access-keys are key shortcuts that are defined by the web page itself,
for quickly accessing the main pages of a website.

  Letters can conflict with their software keys anf make the system  
  unusable for them,
 
 What are software keys?

The browsing keys of the web browser, like those used by links or w3m
for saving the html file, keeping a bookmark, etc.

What are software keys? Hotkeys which start applications when pressed?
I use xterm to start applications. Together with TAB (and the bell
tone if it's ambiguous) this should be usable for blind persons as
well!??

Sorry for being confused, but first I tried to apply these terms to
the Debian website and failed ...
