Screen Reader Support (JAWS, NVDA, Windows Narrator) for Viewers

Kinda Vile
Hi,
I like to script for Second Life. A lot of my background in programming comes from learning LSL and it has been a very useful tool for me.
Around 2020, I had a very bad set of circumstances that caused a rapid development of cataracts that left me with full blindness. It took me nearly half a year to have this rectified, during this time. I was physically incapable of using the platform due to a lack of screen-reader support.
Third-party viewer options (such as Radegast) were impossible to use and left me extremely confused while trying to use them with a screen reader.
It would be really nice if LL could offer accessibility features for visually impaired/blind users, starting with implementing screen reader support for their viewer. As even though I do have my sight back, I do still struggle with focus and sometimes do still use a screen reader to help.
