[horde] Horde/IMP Accessibility Issues

Sounds like you're volunteering to help revise the code and to do detailed 
testing and feedback for us.

As the greatly limited usage of IMP is enough to occupy all of my free time if 
I let it, and that of the other developers as well, we'll need help from people 
with knowledge and need - that would be you - to remove these limits.
