True.
The way adaptive tech vendors deal with accessibility now is to use the
best method they can - native wigets, Microsoft Active Accessibility API,
Java Accessibility API, DOM or any old kludge. As long as there is some way
- there has never been a magic bullet. I know what you mean though, it's
something I've been thinking about quite a bit. 

Mozilla is definitely a short-term accessiblity nightmare, but in the
long-run I think we can get it to be more accessible than anything else. By
the way, let me know if you want to help me figure this access stuff out.
