Base system accessibility wishlist

This is an old revision of the document!

Provide a VTY screenreader (which one?) in the installer itself, as self-configurable as possible, and that can be started on the initial menu with a simple key or key combination.
Add a VTY screenreader (probably the same one) to the packages available from the installer so the installed OS can be speech-friendly from the first boot.
Check the installer text and background colors provide enough contrast (including as shades of grey) and or offer options to change them.
Document the accessibility options added to the installer and available for VTY-only systems.
Make sure all of the documentation and website is fully accessible. At a minimum, this requires checking all images are appropriately described and text contrast is enough to be readable by people with low vision and or color blindness.

Need more description or discussion

Speech recognition instead of a keyboard (that's a very tough one, maybe untractable - accents, spelling variants, ESL speakers, and I'm probably missing some).
Other color schemes than white-on-blue (installer) or white-on-black (out-of-the-box default for VTYs), both configurable from the installer including for the installed OS.
