Hm. Today our Xubuntu lead Jani came up with a solution that edits the 
/usr/.../settings.py file on boot :)

Both solutions are a bit hacky. Your solution has the advantage that it 
does not touch the default settings, but they can always be overridden 
and if someone selects magnifier on boot you can assume they'll be using 
that. The Orca/gconf solution introduces a gconf dependency which you 
have so far avoided.

We might be too late for either solution though, as we are right up 
against RC now.
