The term "Acessibility" is translated as "ZugÃnglichkeit" in various places,
e.g. in the Options dialog. Please consider changing this translation to
"Barrierefreiheit", because:

a) The term seems more common 
b) "ZugÃnglichkeit" commonly carries a different meaning (someone is open to
talk, open-minded, etc.)
c) It makes it clearer that this is property of the software, not the user
d) It seems to be the term favoured by organisations concerned with empowering
   disabled people themselves, see e.g.:

(yes, that article made me report this bug ;)

Thanks!
