OK so
1/ Yes Boris is doing a good job, and I for one does not hold is 'new'
status against him at all, quite the contrary, I'm very pleased that
he decided to tackle some of these Accessibility issues.
I actually worked with him last week-end to get his patch committed.

2/ I am no Accessibility expert, heck not even an amateur on the
topic. The reason I have not acted here is that
the requirement is to push a patch that lubos cherry picked, which is
not 'trivial' to me, hence I don't feel competent to claim it is OK.

3/ there are enough approval to get it through 4-0 and 4-1, but
getting things in a RC branch hours prior tagging is another matter.
I certainly have nothing against that particular patch, and I'll
gladly defer to the opinion of people more informed than me on the
topic.
