Do you have any plans to implement accessibility? On Windows, you should probably implement a UI Automation provider. For GTK-based platforms, I guess you need to use ATK. You'll need an accessibility API of your own to abstract over the multiple back-ends; maybe copy what Gecko has in its nsIAccessible and related interfaces.

Yes this is definitely something we need to do. Unfortunately it's not something I'm very familiar with, but contributions welcome! ;)
