Hello all, Speaking solely as a blind user, I think this issue is being looked at the wrong way.
The thought is: "A user shouldn't have to configure accessibility in GDM and then again in the Desktop". But the thought should be: "why does the user need to configure accessibility (in the Desktop) if he already exists in the system?" Accessibility is a requirement of the user, so it should be enabled when the user is created in the system, just like enabling the mounting of the cd-rom drive, choosing the terminal shell or allowing sudoing to root. This doesn't seem very complex to implement, but I don't know of any Gnome setup that does it, and so we end up with accessibility being configured twice when the user logs for the first time or soon after. This makes even more sense if you consider "roaming profiles", be it in a campus/corporate setup or the cloud. AFAIK this doesn't exist in Gnome yet, but gconf at least already supports LDAP and DB backends, and I think there are already some experiences with roaming profiles. For GDM accessibility, the proposed keyboard shortcuts/gestures would solve the problem.
