Default Banana slicer: essential tool or stupid idea?

Well, I'm not really trying, but I notice them when I come across them.
On a sewing and quilting list, someone mentioned that clothing that's
fitted for people who stand and walk can stick and bunch in all the
wrong places for people who live life sitting-- wheelchair users. I
never would have thought of that, but once it was drawn to my attention,
it made perfect sense. There's a whole mini cottage industry in
clothing patterns that are attractive and comfortable for the seated. I
imagine the market isn't big enough for the giant manufacturers to take
an interest in, but it is large enough for someone to make a profit on.
I'm thinking of the university professor who needs a professional
looking, stylish, fitted suit to wear to work, though s/he teaches from
a wheelchair. That same person needs something dressy and fancy for an
evening party that night.
