As far as I can tell, the main issue under Windows would be concurrency.
There is a POE engine, which can work as a single threaded solution.
Other than that, what's wrong with using Windows to talk to Linux ?
If your screen reading applications are so awesome, then use them through
putty to be able to access a linux shell !
You can also fairly well develop under windows if you choose. Samba works,
you know. You can access a Linux filesystem from Windows without any trouble
at all (and there are VNC clients and servers under linux as well)
I'm not blind, but I work all the time on Unix machines from a windows
station, at work, without any trouble at all.
I believe you will have to invest some time into figuring things out,
but I don't think the barrier is all that great, with a little ingenuity.
