RE: GGIE Identity Use Case Requirements v.1

Hi all,

Looking over this, I note: Other PII (TBD)

If not already contemplated (and there may not be a need, I'm not following this TF closely enough, sorry), there is however often a recurring theme/request that users with disabilities (aka Assistive Technology users) indicate somehow that they are this "class" of user (generically, or specifically - i.e. a screen-reader user). 

I'll simply suggest that a) this type of data would clearly to me be part of that "Other" category, should at some point this be contemplated (ref. TBD);  and that b) we already know (categorically) that not all end-users will want to share that data no matter what, as it is extremely personal and has security ramifications attached.  (i.e. personal physical safety considerations: I have for example a blind colleague who turns on the lights every night, not because he needs them, but because he wants his home to appear occupied and lived in.)

Currently today there is not a dependable way of determining if a user is using any form of assistive technology (short of asking).

My $0.05 worth of unsolicited feedback :-)
