As described above, we expect the UX to be customised by audiences.
Customisation of look and feel of the core UI, especially for reasons of accessibility will also be allowed where technically feasible
Will this customisation extend to the option to switch off Digital On Screen Graphics? One would hope that this would be an option.

It's good to see that there's customisation for the end user, although all that thought going in to a nice clean looking EPG, and the programmes are cluttered means does it really matter?
