hub is already a good start. As you noticed, it does not offer an interface to every feature on GitHub. In some cases, it is rather easy to implement new hub subcommands, if you read the GitHub API documentation, see [1] for a very simple example. For the rest, I actually managed to generate a bit of interest with GitHub staff when I posted this[2] blog article a few months ago. The result of our exchange was, that they are willing to fix (some) accessibility problems you might find when using the GitHub website with a simple browser like Lynx. Just write to supp...@github.com, making the fact that you are talking about an accessibility issue somehow prominent in the subject/message. They have fixed at least two issues I reported to them over time.
