That's a great proposal Eitan and I think fills the 3 real needs you
identify. I don't know ATK well enough to comment on whether it makes
a good standard API but I don't know of any others, making it a
sensible starting point. It could lead to much better accessibility
and possibly greater adoption of GTK (so you could try looking for
funding based on that).

I've not much to add except a couple of minor points.

* For 1) extra language bindings will be useful.

*for 3) it would be great if using GTK on win32 could be made easier
as a parallel project. Last time I tried it was a bit difficult to
figure out but then not too hard. My thinking is that it and the
accessibility should just work on win32.

* you don't show atk-bridge in your picture.

* We could possibly use Jambu as a test AT for IAction with FF3 if I
can easily port it to IA2 (it's on the road map).
