Just as a side note...

Having a knowledgeable blind user willing to do testing is a big boon to getting
accessibility implemented right. I would suggest the project grabs hold of this
person and tries to keep him happy.

Both Apple and Microsoft have been focussing strongly on Accessibility lately —
and particularly for blind users — so this will get to be a big theme going
forward for marketing-ish reasons as well as the normal reasons.
