Comment (by westonruter):

 @afercia is there an established pattern to sniff out for whether or not a
 screen reader is being used and in that case just opt to not initialize
 CodeMirror/ACE/etc at all? If the textarea is best for accessibility, if
 we can just only progressively enhance the textarea with the code editing
 control when the user actually would benefit from it, that would seem like
 a good workaround.
