Alex,
I agree that touch support in maverick would be a really cool thing to 
have. I am not sure how hard that would be to code for Orca to work 
with. By the way, has anyone else noticed an issue in Maverick where 
after install, Orca places a box on the login screen that just has the 
word Orca in it? This box can't be moved using either the keyboard or 
the mouse. I had a sighted person try and move it with no luck. This box 
appears to lock up GDM, preventing me from logging in.

Thanks,
