[Development] Trip report, Accessibility Hackfest, A Coruña

Sounds pretty good. I would suggest involving some WebKit people as well, like either me or Simon Hausmann as we both worked on input method support in WebKit2 / N9 browser.

I had input methods on my list to check... but it dropped off at some point,
thanks for reminding me. Actually this sounds like a very good idea, the Gnome
people seem to have this based on one class that does all the font stuff. IIRC
it's done by exposing some Pango things/functions, I don't know the details.
I'm not sure how low level we want to go, but I'll try to find out where the
common ground is with the font and input people here.

Greetings
Frederik
