Title:
  Single Key Accessible Installation

Status in “gfxboot-theme-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  To choose accessible installation/LiveCD using a screen reader  in
  Ibex 8.10 desktop CD, you have to press enter to select your language
  and then press F5 key,  three down arrows and press return key to
  select screen reader. I have worked with half a dozen blind users and
  this process to get screen reader started is a pain. I suggest perhaps
  we should just have a single key like F12 to start screen reader mode.

  This would probably also require the implementation of the changes
  recommended on the orca sysadmin page to allow people to run admin
  apps from the terminal. It would also require a fix for the problem
  that Orca still won't support admin apps launched from menus rather
  than the terminal. I have a work around for this - change the menu
  launcher commands to launch an application in terminal and add sudo to
  the beginning of each command. However I am not sure if this is
  Ubuntu's, Gnome's or Orca's responsibility to fix!
