A good mobile app should be accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. Because nothing happens until the government says so
"Unlike car manufacturers that put a premium on including safety features upfront (or face the heavy hand of regulators), software makers have typically emphasized speed to market as a way to stay competitive." I'm not sure he's discussing the same car manufacturers I've been hearing about.

Windows included a lot of tools for the disabled; including high-contrast colorschemes that most companies ignored.
It was easy enough to use predefined colors. Many applications didn't.
In a similar way, blind people could buy traintickets without problems until they decided to upgrade all to a touch screen. I dislike modern IT.

I was originally going to try for one of those, but I just couldn't make it work.

As a very satisfied PostSharp user, I am very interested in this !
The lack of some extended meta-mechanism for creating "code contracts" that are lightweight in terms of code footprint, appear as "attributes/annotations" (using that term in the sense of C#'s Attributes), and design-time readable ... is, imho, a significant omission in C#'s evolution, and a logical extension of C#s strongly-compiled "ethos."
I will definitely be testing this new initiative.
