I think we should take a look at it too a reach some consensus between our desires and usability, it is completely useless to make a icon theme which someone, e.g. colourblind people, will have problems using it. I encourage everyone to use same hue for borders so that the shapes would be easily distinguishable even if only used without colours (i.e. grey), for one. It is probably not enough, but it certainly makes them more usable. As for the suggested spin, I think it is a good idea and I see reasons for it. Yes, surely all the usability features should be available in the classical spins as well, but we don't need to enable all of them by default. Especially the artwork could be optimised specially for people with disabilities and enabled on such a spin. BTW. is there a SIG for usability? As you say, we (Fedora Project) care about usability but the applications does not support it as we'd like, so it would be good to coordinate our efforts to improve the situation.
