Just one additional thought on this -- a mantra I live by for Orca is to 
let the user requirements drive the architecture rather than the other 
way around.

So, I agree we should always strive to keep things clean from a 
code/architecture perspective while we work to provide a compelling 
experience for users.  But, all things being equal, I think the user 
experience is more important than architectural onanism.

I also don't think we can just close our eyes and pretend to be blind, 
or pretend we have limited mobility or pretend to be hard of hearing. 
We really need to engage end users for help on what they would perceive 
as a good experience.  So, we're discussing this in a good spot 
(gnome-accessibility-list) and I'm encouraging end users to speak up 
with their thoughts.
