Quick back/packet test with NVDA and Jaws in Firefox suggests it works well.
They've used a tri-state checkbox, which shifts to partially checked whilst
the verification is taking place, then completely checked when verified.

Interestingly by the time I tried it in IE, I must have triggered one of the
heuristics because it prompted me for the old-style CAPTCHA. Presumably the
result of hitting it a few times in quick succession.
