I agree.  It looks like the only way to improve Android accessibility is to work with one of the custom roms.  That's bad because it
means you will have to root and install the custom rom, but it seems the only option for now.
I did try ideal's web solution.  I have very limited success using it.
Just like google, ideal doesn't want patches to improve there product.
