The W3C protocols and formats group is going to take a look at making 
SVG accessible, whether it's used to create widgets or 2d presentations 
such as diagrams. We'll be looking to use namespaced role and property 
attributes most likely. Keyboard navigation is also being looked at, but 
that's a wider issue being discussed in W3C right now.
