New description:

 This is a collector bug for bugs in accessibility related topics.

 There are opportunities for many to help and advise us here.

 We can foresee having some sort of a package that overlays the base
 distribution to allow for larger fonts, larger cursors, high and low
 contrast themes, speech synthesis and other accessibility technology
 that may not be feasible/useful to put into the base image.

Comment:

 Walter, many governments at least in the developed world have increasingly
 strong requirements in this area.  I suspect we should revisit this topic
 sometime soon.
