I myself have bouts of colorblindedness. But in my case it usually involves large quantities of Witch's Brew and Absinthe.
Focus! Focus! ... Oh, wait, it's MY problem.

this would be nice. after all, I can't imagine this will be very strenuous as an update.

try getting on a team for heros ascent without TS or Vent..
those two programs have all but eliminated the current useage of crtl T...
even in GVG matches... granted deaf people CAN see pings on the mini map et al.. but your team all using TS means you have no idea whos doing what..
Anets "battle replay" has helped a great deal in allowing hearing impaired to watch how battles move.. but the crutch is still the same... unless you can hear your not getting on a pvp team very easy.. AND if you actually manage to do so your out of the loop the entire time..
I know of four people who are deaf and play guildwars.
we all talk to eachother about the game mechanics and how its fairly well set up to accomodate hearing impaired.. and the majority of players who do pvp use ts/vent which nullifies the in-game tools...
this really isnt an issue Anet can do anything about, but its something you all can...

customizable ui, or at least even options to revert to older ui's or pre-prepared ui's
Not color blind in any way that I know but I color code and organize things to help me offset my brain problems.

My son has red-green issues and has pretty much stopped playing because it's too hard for him to keep track of what's going on with the way it is now.

There's not a whole lot to be done for deaf people in PvP short of them learning to type 70 words per minute, and/or introducing lots of customizable macros. Making the game easier for colorblind folks, though, would not be hard.

if it is a lot harder than you think it is they will not .
and dont expect anything before/shortly after Nightfall as they are on the home stretch for that and after launch they will be busy fixing bugs that pop up

I've colourblindness as well so I support this. I don't like how the new interface health bars just fade between conditions etc. makes it less contrast and noticeable.
I also have trouble distinguishing between Guild chat and Local chat. The green/yellows or whatever they are, look very very similar to me and sometimes I need to switch Local chat on/off just to make out the Guild Chat - been that way since before the UI change.

i want more customisation in the GUI, talking color, because the interface moddification already inplace is quite cool, but colors would be a big +

I agree that A-Net and NC-Soft should do something for the color blind. I have a friend who is partialy color blind and he plays Guild Wars. They could make and option and put it into the options menu to correct this then it wouldn't be as big a problem to implenemt. Possibly allowing each player to outline arrows or have a setting that can change certian aspects to help out our colorblind players.
this should not be too hard to do, just might take a bit of time to get the coding down right.

Major threadomancy on this one. They fixed this a long time ago, I think in the April 26th factions update.

Also, an easy way to tell if a boss is a ranger or necro is to look at them. Ranger bosses tend to use bows.

Didn't ANet update the default UI all around a while ago? Did it help this issue at all (I'm asking anyone who happens to be color blind)?

I am red/green color green color blind as well, but I have no problems whatsoever distinguishing status conditions on characters. I do suppose that if it is a problem for you it is probably a problem for other people as well, but Anet may not always be able to cater to a small percentage of the community. Even so, I will sign just for the sake of there being more options for people with disabilities.
