I suspect that's not easily possible. The apps would need to communicate state and type information for every object to Apple's accessibility API, which would take a substantial bit of coding to accomplish. From what I've read, other than text-based command line stuff, the various GUIs from the unix world are not accessible. X11 has some add-ons to hook into other accessibility APIs but this is only a subset overlay as there is no X11 accessibility standards or even work being done on a standard.
