Testing /manage/circle/edit overhaul

I'm working on making the manage circle page better, including adding accessibility improvements. Problem is, I don't use a lot of accessibility tools (computer-wise), and I don't have the slightest clue what's useful for, say, someone with a screen reader.

So.

If you would like to create an account on my dreamhack and thwonk away at it, that would be wonderful -- one thing I haven't tried is what happens with more than, like, five accounts. Comment here, or catch me on IRC, and I'll throw you a code.

If you don't want to do that, feel free to look at the form as seen by a logged-in account. (Don't worry, with this trick you can't change anything. But you can still poke.)

BTW: I have only changed the top half (current relationships). The bottom half (add relationships) still lacks accessibility stuff; I'm planning on adding that, but figured I'd fling people at this first.

And I would love feedback. Especially wrt accessibility stuff (is there enough information for screen readers? is there *too much* information, making it confusing? can you tell what's what? are there things I should be aware of?), but from any perspective is good.

Right now, in the people box, the your status column, there are checkmarks, as if I can change how the other personal account relates to me, which I can't. This is very confusing.

Also, I don't think Subscribe? and Give Access? should have question marks, since they are reporting your current status, as well as giving you the chance to change your status, but that just might be me.

Also, the bottom half doesn't appear to have a separate save button? Is that on purpose?
