How can we improve InDesign?

InDesign Accessibility Checker feature

I use Indesign to create ADA compliant documents. I constantly have to go between InDesign and Acrobat. It would be more productive if the accessibility features in Acrobat were included in InDesign. It would also be nice to have a built in color checker included in Indesign.

Is there a plug in available??

    InDesign should have a full set of tools for making accessible PDF. It's demanded by law in my country, and it's just common decency. Especially companies like Adobe should do their utmost to make things accessible.

    We need a Preflight definition for InDesign that checks for accessibility issues, such as:
    1) Unicode (OpenType) fonts
    2) Alt-text on graphics
    3) Tags defined in the paragraph styles
    4) Correct formatting of lists and tables
    5) Color contrast
    6) Metadata / File Info
    7) Sequential hierarchical headings
    And more!
