Just to throw another option out there:

 - Add a new Accessibility sub-menu inside of the Accessories sub-menu.

Why:

Accessibility wouldn't be the first menu-item.

The Applications menu wouldn't get any bigger (it's already quite long).

The impact on the Accessories menu would be reduced.

This might be appropriate if the applications don't need to be accessed 
frequently, as you suggested (since the tools can be turned on and off 
through a preferences app).
