I would argue that if it's not visible to a partially sighted person
during install how are they to actually get the release installed.
Unfortunately for someone that actually needs high contrast to make a
system usable it's not really something they can do without to begin
with and update later, it's not like some other features that can be
fixed easily with an update (like say a web cam or a peripheral
driver) because it likely affects the persons ability to actually use
anything from the outset.
