Accesskeys generally do more harm than good, unless unset as default with an option to allow individual users to choose definitions for the major links. A universially admin-avaialble accesskey attribute will only lead to well-meaning administrators crippling users of assistive technologies (AT) with confusing, language specific ('s' for search anyone?) accesskeys that interfeer with AT shortcuts (a good example being ALT+1, in JAWS this has a specific well used meaning but most sites with accesskeys to 'help' AT users override it). Sensible heading orders and structures and well-placed skip links mean more to AT and keyboard navigators.

Great idea, and the right feeling behind it but this is not the way to improve accessibility in drupal. Strong -1.
