Sure, I've met some real prickly authors in my day, but I can't imagine too many (at least publicly), after having been asked the question about allowing ebooks in that context, saying, "f**K the disabled. I like real, printed books. End of discussion."
This would be awesome. While I cannot speak for other cripples, I would much rather have successful authors banding together to provide me with floozies instead of ebooks.
