Re: Disabled elements need keyboard focus?

A question has been tugging at me while I've been reading this thread.

Screen reader users are clearly disadvantaged if disabled elements are not marked up sufficiently, but there seems to be a lot of support in WCAG.

WCAG 2.0 treats disabled elements as incidental in terms of color contrast.

How do you support low vision users that are not covered but may be similarly disadvantaged?

Thanks,
