Sounds like an interesting tool... although I make enough mis-clicks
when it's *me* who's working the buttons, so I hate to think how many
I'd make if something else was doing it for me :o)  (Possibly fewer, I
guess!)  

Looking a few months down the road, there is an ongoing effort to make
GNOME accessible to all users who are physically incapacitated in some
way... core support for this should be in place for 2.0.  You can pick
out an overview of the plans at:

I'm afraid most of it is in press-release-speak, but there's some
information in there too :o)

Cheeri,
Calum.
