A Guideline with recommendations about web authoring tools...
Guideline 7. Ensure that the authoring tool is accessible to authors
with disabilities
http://www.w3.org/TR/ATAG10/#gl-make-accessible


from:
Authoring Tools Accessibility Guidelines
W3C recommendation 3 February 2000
http://www.w3.org/TR/ATAG10/


and also see
W3C WAI Authoring Tools Guidelines Group
http://www.w3.org/WAI/AU/

Authoring Tool Conformance Evaluations
http://www.w3.org/WAI/AU/2002/tools

I did not read, but believe that these tests or evals were voluntary and
a set of suggestions or tools for application developers to work with.
But some of these items might be helpful[many are dated] with help in
choosing tools, or software applications(including courseware packages)?

I am not sure how active this group is, and it is another area where
accessibility needs continued or ongoing work.
