We are preparing a simple hack to make Ubuntu Edgy installable with Orca. Normally Orca runs as the user 'ubuntu' on the Live CD and the installer as root, which stops them talking to each other properly until the fix Will refers to is introduced in Gnome 2.17. To get around this we will make the installer check whether Orca is needed and if so launch it as root, which should Just Work. Chris Jones has also made an Orca script for the installer (ubiquity), which makes it behave fairly well/ We could extend the hack to other modules using sudo, but it's probably better to use root for now and then use the better solution in 2.17.
