Actually I looked into this the past week and am happy to report it's
working fine for me. It did require both making the themed greeter more
a11y-friendly as well as some other fixes. It's tracked here (note the
pointers to the various bugs on the GNOME bugzilla)

and the live CD for Fedora 7 test3 should have this, e.g. we want the
live CD to boot into gdm and from there you can enable AT's (and/or
select your language) and these will also be started for your desktop
session.
