I would be very interested in helping out with this. It sounds like it
could be quite fiddly, but rewarding. And I need to learn more about the
fine details of this accessibility stuff -- I've been nipping around the
edges for too long with little success.

I know Michael Meeks has had an item like this on his public TODO list
for a long time, so we might at least make him happy. :-)

Are you offering to lead the way with a shining light, David?

Let me know how you want to do things and I'll see what I can
contribute.

Cheers,
Malcolm
