Amen to that Shane.
I know this is not a project that uses .NET, but there is a class in .NET that helps link labels to text boxes and radio buttons. Those can help the desktop UI to be accessible right out of the box.
It is called Accessibility.dll and once imported, it can allow the coder to add the label text to the focusable object. That way, when a screen reader lands on it, it will extract the description from the MSAA directly. No screen reader scripts will be needed at all.
I have code samples in VB.NET for that class.
