The (for my accessibility desktop) most important feature of Xdialog is missing in zenity: support for --menu. This is a critical function for line-based braille and speech. The gtk1 version is not accessible with orca, so blind users are stuck with the text console at the moment if they use dialogs with multiline menus. I tend to create a Knoppix-specific fork of xdialog if there is no official package from Debian avaliable. Would be glad to help upstream getting a new version in, of course.
