David,
I didn't indicate that the user interface isn't navigable with the keyboard - in fact it is, but only if you have some vision. You can tab to the chat pod and type and send messages, and you can copy the entire chat series and paste into a document on your system. I'm no t sure whether you tried and weren't successful, or if there was some other issue at play.

If a person has limited vision and uses a screen magnifier, since the interface doesn't send info to assistive technologies the screen magnifier's viewport location won't adjust to the focus position change which could make locating the focus difficult if a high-degree of magnification is being used.

Thanks,
AWK
