[games_access] teaching accessibility

[oneswitch at googlemail.com]

I still like that top 10. I think it's a really good starting place - and 
Michelle's done a nice job from my scanning through of fleshing it out a lot 
more.

You can find some extra guidance on top of all the other stuff here (good 
luck ploughing through!) here:

Including some guidance for thinking about Eye Tracker users, Head-Tracker 
users, One-Switch gamers and Deaf / Partially Hearing links.
