It is, Flutter (which also draws all the UI on a canvas) already does that - it’s called AccessibilityBridge. The way it works is they hook into the native accessibility system and create virtual accessibility nodes with the same size and coordinates where the “widgets” are drawn.
I think it’d be useful to create some common AccessibilityBridge-like library since more and more UI frameworks are taking the same approach as Flutter and GPUI.
