Probably best addressed as part of an overall accessibility policy. If they
can't enter passwords, they're probably going to have problems after they get
past the password as we.. You also need to deal with visually handicapped users
and so on - it may be you just need to bite the bullet and accept the fact that
some users can't use the general-use computers in the lab, and have to access
from (probably their own) systems that have specialized accessibility input/
output devices/etc.
