I think it would be preferable to have a single extension, if possible - just
one package to install. Also, I hope it's released under a suitable open
licence so it can be included by default in operating system distributions.

Debian already packages a number of firefox extensions, for example.

The UIUC accessibility extension already creates an accessibility menu. It
would be important to ensure that the two don't conflict if installed
together.
