Because QT utilizes a modular architecture for accessibility, a vast majority of QT applications are rendered inaccessible when developers fail to include this module.

    Description

      The Accessibility module, which provides screen readers and other adaptive technology access to applications using the QT Framework, should not, in fact, be a module. Allowing developers to exclude this module means that an extremely high amount of QT apps are completely inaccessible. I submit that until either accessibility is integrated into *all modules, or the accessibility module is made mandatory, QT cannot be considered an accessible framework.
