Noticed this thread and did some testing on an idea. Here is a video of my results. The audio is bad for the screen capture, but sounds fine in real life:

This is done with a service addon running in the backround speaking the text with festival on ubuntu.
I think ideally with this approach, using a simplified XBMC skin would be best. (plus the skin could be tailored for those with partial blindness as well)
I am making the assumption that navigating with a remote and having the focused controls and window names spoken is sufficient.
Please feel free to correct me on my assumptions or to suggest or ask something.
