Hi Mikodo,
thank you for your messages on this topic. Accessibility is something we need to work on for Unity8. We have plenty to do, from the visual assistance features you've mentioned, to proper keyboard navigation and text-to-speech support. We have a solid list of TODOs (we had a meeting on this topic only this week), we just need to get to work.

I've been doing desktops since the Unity2d days, which had reasonably good accessibility support. We intend to make Unity8 even better.

The unfortunate reality is that features like convergence do tend to get more business focus than important usability features. It is messages like yours that give us not only the motivation but also persuasive arguments and evidence ("users are asking for this") to give more resources to this topic.

Thanks for commenting here. We'll be in touch when we've features ready for testing.
