It's an essential feature for disabled people to be able to customize their UI.

Please elaborate this. Variant 1 is designed with "normal" a11y in mind, meaning you have the 
mnemonics of labels (hope all controls have one in the mockup) and access to the context menu per dedicated 
key. The question to me is why disabled persons would customize menu, toolbar, and shortcuts.
Average users do likely customize in order to comply with known UIs such as past LibreOffice versions, or 
shortcuts from other programs. And that's possible (in both variants) per quick access to the extendable 
presets (today we have only one general setting "Libreoffice"). That's why I would hide the less 
relevant controls.

The default UI/UX tries to fit the need of the majority. Blind people for example may have difficulties to understand the content of the screen. The screen is mostly based on context of element and blind people have only access to a linear representation of the screen.

When we have a person with difficulties to have a mental representation of a UI/UX it's really useful to adapt it to fit exactly his cognitive situation, at least to let one the time to learn things to go to standards at one's rhythm.

Best regards.

ps: I talk about blind people because it's what I'm aware of because I'm myself a low-vision person.
