Bug#598133: gdm3: Should provide shortcuts and configuration snippets to enable accessibility

[Samuel Thibault]

Debian-boot, this is about letting d-i automatically enable
accessibility features of gdm3 when accessibility was enabled during
d-i.

Mmm, ATM there are both speakup and brltty which would want to enable
Orca for instance.  How to do this properly?  My concern is making sure
that no package upgrade will unexpectedly override the alternative that
has been chosen by d-i.

Else, a dirty-but-working way would be to let brltty or speakup
d-i scripts create a file in /usr/share/gconf/defaults and run
update-gconf-defaults.
