When I saw just the topic, I immediately thought about a friend of mine that is a quadriplegic. Currently he does use a voice navigation system to get around his computer.. It's not perfect either, I've seen it do other things than what he commanded it to do.. Often it was things that involved the UI like opening programs or firing off commands. This gaze thing might be the extra mile he needs for a (less) frustration free interface. I don't see it replacing tasks like typing for him, but this would make getting around his computer much easier.
