Maybe see if NVDA works under Wine and if not submit it as a project
through them, just keep the ReactOS name off of it and everyone is
happy except for ReactOS enthusiasts.

I seem to recall someone had developed a USB stack for NT4 for Legacy
systems but it was very limited. Perhaps you could submit a project to
create a better implementation of this for legacy systems. Are there
newer features and functionality in USB that say do not work on
Windows 2000?
