Bill,
I agree that, whilst it's not too difficlt to label graphics, if you start
with a new program, it's helpful if some of those graphics are labelled and
you can find your way round more quickly and easily.
I maintain that if other programs have this facility and visually impaired
people have found the facility useful then HJ should consider this option
favourably.
