AFAIK the answer is no. With single page apps a single list of all widgets could quickly get difficult to handle with css style queries, the best practice would therefore be to use OO design techniques. You can access the root application by qx.core.Init.getApplication(), so if it had a property for the main window you might end up with something like qx.core.Init.getApplication().getMainWindow().getTitle()
