I'm not disabled, nor particularly old (!), but one thing I find very
inconvenient when browsing the web on a mobile device is the inability
to cut & paste content from web pages. This means that if I find a page
with an address on it, which I want to find on a map, I have to firstly
remember it, then re-type it in my device's map application, or an
on-line mapping site.
I imagine that both the memorising, and the lengthy retyping, would be
problematic for a number of people with disabilities or age related
conditions.
Being able to disable CSS would also make many sites, which are not
designed for mobile use, more readable.
