Much, much more.
Speaking of myself, I need to rerender in an alternative format such as braille or synthetic speech because I'm not going to read anything on a screen.
As I recall the original post in this thread, that user couldn't deal with the size of chars in the LDP files. This is a more prevalent need than my need--and will increase in prevalence as our population ages.
Other people need to "flip polarity," to see white text on a dark background. Other people need to control foreground/background color combinations (color blindness), etc., etc., etc.
So, you may not need more, but we weren't talking about one person, right?
