WordPress 3.6: Revisions
The Core team are about to start looking at some improvements around the Post/Page revisions. From an a11y perspective, the Compare Revisions display needs some serious work. It’s currently a tabled form with no labels and multiple links with identical text. So I’ve put forwards some suggestions for changes.

Good for flagging this up Esmi. Have you seen the latest idea with the red and green dots or lines? Colourblindness anyone?

The use of progress-type bars is pretty poor on all fronts, in my opinion. Stick with numbers and I think most potential access barriers would be by-passed. Plus you’d get rid of most of the “Uh?” factor that I think would be the immediate response of pretty much all users.
The colour combinations are also pretty awful. This screenshot shows how the red/green display would look to sufferers of the two most common forms of color blindness (approx 10% of all males, potentially). If anyone is interested, that screenshot was made using the free Color Contrast Analyser desktop tool.

The link for Clor Contrast Analyser is great–thanks for passing that on!
