I'll remove etc/profile.d/qt-accessibility.sh shortly.

The "export QT_ACCESSIBILITY=1" will load all installed accessibility-
plugins (such as the Qt AT-SPI) to provide accessibility-services. You
still need to activate a screen reader for applications to become
accessible. Exporting this environment variable just makes sure that
when a user activates Orca it can start screen reading straight away. I
work with the Accessible Computing Foundation, they are likely to start
using Ubuntu MATE, and requested that export QT_ACCESSIBILITY=1 be added
so that Skype and Mumble (Qt applications they rely on) can screen read
just like the GTK applications.

I've thought of a way to provide the user settings Ubuntu MATE requires
without putting stuff in `/etc/skel`. I'll update the repo later.
