I didn't name it, but that's its name (the feature/specification).

the user know that the feature they have just invoked "really is
Access X", in case

Perhaps, if the help was searchable. :-) "Access X" would make even less
sense as a help topic title than it does as a window title -- but it
should certainly be in the list of hidden synonyms p

Is now a good time to drop "AccessX" from the strings?
No please. Also, old-time Windows users may remember this as 'Access DOS'.
The feature is still widely referred to in the accessibility community
as 'Access X', so I see a real downside in removing it, and little benefit.

Hi,
A while a go I filed a patch [1] to remove AccessX from the strings of
the Keyboard Accesibility capplet. E.g the window title contains the
text AccessX and various error messages as well.
The patch was not accepted because "AccessX" is a known term in the
accessibility world.
