It is hard for me to imagine an accessibility panel that would speak in favor of overlays. The only message that I have heard at conferences has been about the inaccessibility of overlays. Also, I appreciate learning a new word today: manel. The questions that this panel was set to discuss reveal a heavy bias indeed!

1. Can overlay tools help to improve the Accessibility of Websites?
2. Where can it be helpful and where are the borders of such tools?
3. Who is the target group and for which community it can be helpful to use these tools?
