I would like to have all at-spi functionality available in EMACS.
Currently some at-spi functionality works and some does not.
While I realize that some of that functionality seems to serve little purpose right now, I believe it would facilitate the development of applications that can use it.
In particular, I would like to be able to have text transferable through at-spi, like it is now in gedit. So in theory I could put text into that kind of a buffer, from another application, and have it land in EMACS.
I would like it present in the default install, but if this is a problem an add-on would be acceptable.

For at-spi2, there seems to exist a D-Bus spec. I'm not familar with
at-spi, so I don't know whether it is sufficient for Emacs to implement
at-spi via D-Bus.
In case of yes, I could help with such an implementation. Sounds interesting.

At least it could be a starter. However, it seems to be a little bit
old; its copyright is from 2009, and it does not mention the
"org.a11y.*" D-Bus interfaces from at-spi2.
I will contact Mario about his future plans.
Best regards, Michael.
