This is indeed what Trolltech and KDE are suggesting. The current AT-SPI architecture with its CORBA dependency cannot be used by Qt applications for various technical reasons, so we have two options: a) move AT-SPI to D-Bus b) use IA2 on top of D-Bus (even under Linux) Trolltech are implementing IA2 support for Qt 4.3, which will then be bridged to one of the two variants, depending on GNOME feedback. My hope is that we will be able to agree on a single accessibility architecture for as many different platforms and desktops as possible (Linux, Unix, Mac, Windows, KDE, GNOME, Qtopia, Sugar, HildenDesktop, XFCE, ...) Unfortunately no Gtk or GNOME developers are currently working on this.
