Do you mean something like this...  (in the case of SEE)


Disability Impact Statement
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The DotGNU Secure Execution Environment (SEE) is the part
of the webservices system where client-side components of
webservices are executed; this includes in particular the
parts of the program which implement the user interface.
Support for assistive devices for disabled users is provided by
specialized SEE plugins.  Each of these plugins provides an API
for one assistive device; the plugin can also be used without
the assistive device in a simulation mode that allows
(non-disabled) software developers to easily get a first
impression of user experience of any given program for disabled
users.
