So, in addition to drawing calls coming across you would need the additional accessibility semantics. Why? This isn't how accessible remote system access is handled today. In particular, as I've tried to explain before, providing access to the accessibility tree is insufficient on the dominant business platform, Windows. As you say, another beyond this would be a "very large project (fraught with a lot of gotchas)". I don't see any room for such a project. -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis
