[Rwp] Slightly OT Isotope Plug-ins

With all due respect to Jeshua, that's BS.
Not only did iZotope commit to making a lot of their things 
accessible several years ago, meaning the actual UI, but they even 
set up a separate accessibility testing group. I was part of it for 
awhile. It fizzled and died, but for awhile there, they were entirely 
on our side and working to make things better.  At the time, Ted 
Terry was an important contact. I don't know if he is still with 
iZotope, but it might be worth dropping his name into the 
conversation. Large parts of Ozone 7 are accessible to us thanks to 
this initial work, although efforts seemed to have stalled more recently.

I'm guessing Jeshua is just new to the company so has no idea this 
all took place.
