Re: Use of Citrix to provide accessibility?

I would very much doubt it. We've had significant integration issues
with Citrix and other Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) applications. The
screen readers themselves didn't work with most of the clients until
(relatively) recently, which also involved Microsoft updating the
operating system functions to pass the accessibility information through
to the client. For more information, the Wikipedia article on Remote
Desktop Protocol via URL
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Desktop_Protocol might be of use to
you.

If it sounds too good to be true..
