Embedded web applications such as you mention are the motivation for
the WAI-ARIA markup under development.

http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/aria.php

In particular, for a spreadsheet, you would want to use the 'grid' role.

http://www.mozilla.org/access/dhtml/spreadsheet

WAI-ARIA is designed to give device-independent activation of 
application methods
and device-independent information on [changes in] application state.  By
interoperating with accessibility API interfaces that Assistive 
Technologies use to
afford this access to installed applications.
