I've got a titanium powerbook just dying for a solution.

Hi, David.
Actually, writing our own x toolkit is totally unnecessary as the gtk+
toolkits and even QT  are being updated to work with gnopernicus and other
screen readers. So it is a matter of patients rather than reinventing the
wheel.
Another disadvantage to introducing another toolkit is getting it adopted by
mainstreme Linux developers that are already engaged in using other
toolkits.
Point here is x-windows accessibility is coming along very slowly, but is
coming none-the-less.
