So I'm a bit worried that 3rd party accessible apps peek at the NSView hierarchy to traverse the accessibility hierarchy. In my case that would be fatal, because the view hierarchy is *not* ordered in any sensible way, according to how the actual UI works.

3rd party apps that use the accessibility APIs have no ability to peak at the NSView hierarchy. They only see the accessibility hierarchy you present. So if you've taken (enough) control over what NSApp presents they'll only see what you want them to see.
