Ultimately, I guess the value for any gconf setting in 
schemas/desktop_gnome_interface.schemas can be whatever a distro wants 
it to be.  What I'm proposing, however, is that the default value that 
we choose for GNOME is that accessibility will be enabled by default. 
If distros want to revert this back to disabling accessibility, I guess 
it would be their choice.

For examples of other settings that live in the same file:
