Please review QAccessibilityClient

[Frederik Gladhorn]

Hi,

Mario Fux asked if I could make a release of libqaccessibilityclient. When I started this 
little lib it was seemingly KDE only but with a bit of help, mostly from Sebastian 
Sauer it became a nice little Qt only lib.

It makes writing accessibility tools easy by providing a convenient API over the rather 
tedious DBus AT-SPI "standard". That means it works with Gnome, KDE/Qt apps and 
potentially others. Simon started to depend on it and the KWin focus tracking works 
with it as well.

There is a fun example app that comes with the lib, it demonstrates a bit what the 
library provides. There are two classes "Registry" to provide the subscription to 
changes and "AccessibleObject" which represents one widget.
Together they give a lot of information about running apps and are a nice basis for 
further helpful technology.

The code can be found here:
git://anongit.kde.org/libkdeaccessibilityclient

I haven't had much time to work on it, but spent a bit of time cleaning it up today. 
The functions are generally documented and I'd be very happy about 
feedback/reviews.

If there are no major blockers/improvement suggestions I'd like to make a release 
soon. If someone is looking for a fun and interesting new task, I would be happy with 
some help to get this baby out.

Greetings,
Frederik
