This has always been an issue with macs, they for some strange reason think
the blind can see the screen and interact with it.  Their voice over on the
mac has always had the problem of you have to select the text and then it
reads it to you. They don't see the inherent problem.

Drives you nuts.  It would be nicve if they would just test their products
under real world conditions.

Apple has a feature on its macs, a new accessibility feature where they put
braille on the screen, so you can see the braille.  You can't feel it but
its there!
