There are several possible ways to deal with what sounds like an indictment of "Bespin guys" and maybe they don't deserve that, however history shows that in all human/civil rights issues there are just such people - in fact if you examine the demonstration by Tommie Smith and John Carlos at the 1968 Olympics that caused a huge uproar in "bigotworld" (which was most media and most people then!) you will see all the unsane arguments for "separate but equal". This is not a "tangent", it's the central issue for the DRM (Disability Rights Movement not Digital Rights Management!), particularly when we are dealing with furthering the goal of W3C, including especially its founder. We can no longer afford to sit idly by while all the gains of the last decade in Web Accessiblity are sacrificed on the altar of "I didn't know blind people could use the Web" thinking. Bolting on stuff is clearly unacceptable, morally/ethically/legally and that "Chrome" was put out before it was even minimally accessible is disgusting. Love.
