Agreed on that first point.

I have a wheelchair-bound character in one of my original comic projects, and his disability has absolutely no bearing on the plot or his character arc whatsoever. But I had at least two acquaintances I know told me it was ridiculous (for lack of a better description) to have a wheelchair-bound character in a futuristic sci-fi based story. And I'm sure they won't be the last people to point that out... :/ But I strongly believe in seeing this character and his arc through (of which it plays no major part of), so I'm sticking with my guns on this one.

But yeah, treating them like characters first and foremost is an important part. If you focus too much on the disability, however well meaning you might be, it runs the risk of being borderline tokenism. There's a clear difference between a fully fleshed out character, who just so happens to have a disability, and a blatant attempt to score diversity points that solely focuses on that one aspect of the character and neglects everything else.
