I didn't say that the Linux users or Mac users are not important. MFC or 
standard Win32 GUI is better accessible than wxWIDGETS but I considered that 
wxWIDGETS should be prefered (and not only Win32 controls) because it is 
*portable*, exactly because it also work on other platforms than Windows.
But this doesn't mean that giving the most used screen reader as an example 
for testing the inaccessibility of Tk is not something that should be done 
(especially that Tk-based GUIS are inaccessible for other screen readers 
also.)
