Accessible install and Vinux?

I think Lucid is on track to be a fabulous distro for accessibility.
I'm working on a Vinux ISO based on Ubuntu Lucid, and I'm pretty
excited about it.

However, even better than having a separate ISO would be having a
Vinux-like install option.  Is there any chance that the we Vinux guys
could work with the Luke and the Ubuntu accessibility guys on adding a
bunch of cool accessibility stuff automatically when an accessible
install is selected?  In particular, a more accessible desktop
environment (different /etc/skel), and speakup support would be a huge
improvement for an accessible install, IMO.

I'd much rather work on an accessible install for Ubuntu than a
separate Vinux/Ubuntu ISO.  Any chance this could happen?

Thanks,
Bill
