Support disabled use of MPE on PC/Mac

I love MPE. I've been using it for some years.

I can't use a mouse or keyboard, so I use Dragon NaturallySpeaking and a microphone on my PC.

A simple request: associate a label with every form control. [See https://www.w3.org/WAI/tips/developing/ ... rm-control ]

For example, you have a clickable link in the Call log section "Answered". In the code add something like
<label for=" Answered">Answered</label>
so that I can say "Click Answered" to activate that link.

Thanks for a great product! Now I will say "click Submit".

Won´t make a promise but I see your point and I will give FJ a hint to this topic.

Second!

This requirement is one of a very few things that all softwares must include so as to provide the minimum basic level of accessibility. It is likely already part of Microsoft's guidelines to qualify for compatibility with Windows. So yes please go ahead and remove any architectural barriers, so that MPE can stop effectively discriminating against people who are obligated to use alternative interface methods.

@Bilbo47: I'm sure your disability is painful, and I feel for you, but please be gentle.

Remember that nobody is entitled to MPE. I'm sure you will agree that FJ will be more inclined to work on it if we say things like "I love MPE" instead of "effectively discriminating against"?

As for Windows accessibility compliance, don't get me started...
