Description
This library, sadly, doesn't send any accessibility events to screen readers, such as [NVDA](http://nvaccess.org). This makes applications (such as [this](https://github.com/lapce/lapce), totally not work). We can't read anything in the window, and alt f4 doesn't even close the application. It would be great if accessibility API support could be included.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by examining how druid integrates with platform window events and accessibility APIs, then reproduce the behavior with NVDA and the linked Lapce application. Done means applications expose usable accessibility events and screen-reader interaction, including closing the window with Alt+F4.
