I think you're missing the point. The main accessibility concern
is sightedness: how does your site perform for a non-visual user
agent?
My brother is totally blind - from a motorcycle accident. He uses a browser plugin to convert text-to-speech. Is that the type of adaptive technology we're talking about? I haven't tested it, but since the database maintenance application I referenced is built entirely from standard HTML tags, I'll assume it would work.
I'm not sure whether database maintenance is appropriate employment for a blind person. Notwithstanding, I tend to prefer user interfaces that don't employ drop-down and popup menus, which may have many items (occasionally disabled) having nothing to do with the activity at hand (standard fare for Microsoft). Now, that would be tedious for a blind person. If you look more closely at the application I reference, you will see that every navigational option, every popup, everything has to do with the activity at hand. Intuitive for a blind person.
What am I missing?
