So me starting a discussion does not require your consent nor your help.
I shall take you up on that and start discussing.

The suggestion was mainly driven by the previous comment that my requests are not
considered seriously.  This is not always a healthy solution to inactivity.

Let's do the no-brainer and see how that goes.  An accessibility option is good,
but need an easy way to enable it after installing emacs.  I suggest an
"Initial Option" such as "emacs -A", together with an elisp command
"(accessibility 1)".

Jeff, what do you think about this?  Would it be a good 70th birthday present?

Felicitations
Christopher
