An impressive collection of reviews! Have you planned doing some review of
A-Prompt, too? In my (much more limited) tests I have come to the conclusion
that among the tools, A-Prompt is currently the most promising. Too bad
there seems to be little sign of continuous development of A-Prompt, and
A-Prompt is not really something I would like to run for my documents
routinely, after each change. The reasons are explained in my short review
of Bobby and A-Prompt, prefaced with some general notes on the
(im)possibility of automated checks on accessibility:

I definitely planned on a section on both A-Prompt and Wave but have not
gotten to it. Sorry about that.
