I agree with Daniel, partly because this doesn't solve the need to 
produce accessible content.  Since our roadmap calls for accessible 
access to *standard* user agents,  a blind (for instance) user may well 
be using nautilus as user agent, in which case gnome.org pages that 
don't comply with w3c accessibility guidelines may still be largely 
inaccessible.  Just because the user agent is accessible doesn't mean 
that it can automagically make opaque content accessible.
