AFAIU, the default desktop on Pi-ready Debian images (and probably the
only one that could reasonably be expected to run on it anyway) is LXDE,
which isn't currently accessible. This isn't to say you couldn't
hack your own solution on the Pi if you wanted to create an affordable
accessibility solution for all, but, until LXDE or another lightweight
WM or desktop environment becomes accessible, there won't be an OOTB
solution.
