Comment (by FolioVision):

 Let's not allow the extreme troll arguments to upset the apple cart. Our
 goal here should be to create the best possible code editor experience for
 screen readers users '''and''' for non-screen reader editors.

 I've done some more experimenting with screen readers. From my hands on
 experiments, the best possible experience for screen reader users is a
 tool which caters primarily to screen reader editors.

 If we continue to cripple the main code editor in WordPress, zersiax and
 rian, in effect we are validating the arguments of someone like
 comfortking, and saying WordPress is a tool only for people who use a
 screen readers (as we are unwilling to give state of the art tools to
 those who don't use screen readers).

 Let's get to work on building additional tools around the plain text
 editor to add useful functionality for screen reader users.
