FWIW the format I used for the accessx applet UI spec at
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/proposals/accessxapplet.html is
essentially the one Sun uses for its internal projects (minus some bits
that weren't relevant to this project), so it's been well usability
tested :)  I could probably post the templatized-version on the site for
folks to use, or just as a basis to meld a more GNOMEy one from,
assuming the Sun powers that be don't have any objections.

Cheeri,
Calum.
