Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] [Libreoffice-qa] Adding "Accessibility" component to Bug Assistant

Hi all,

in my opinion it would be great to have a component for accessibility; it could let developers to 
better focus on accessibility bugs and, on the other hand, blind people to know that accessibility 
is important for this project and that submitting bug reports of this type is more than encouraged…

Let's take, for instance, the mac os x version of LO: unfortunately it contains tons of 
accessibility bugs that make impossible to use it for a blind user; if I would submit them with the 
label "accessibility" developers could understand faster what works and what doesn't...

Just my opinion; maybe I am late, but I decided to share the opinion from my blind-user waiting for 
an accessible mac os x version of lo perspective...

          Vincenzo.
