Well, at the moment, I suspect you're best off providing an alternate
interface for people who cannot use "canvas" and linking to it from
the editor page with a normal "a" element. Share as much logic as
possible between the two interfaces.

You might also look at non-"canvas" technologies where the
accessibility story is actually somewhat better though still a
million miles from perfect (e.g. contenteditable, Java, Flash,
Silverlight).
