This came up before on the list (from me!). Apple did not anticipate that
knowing this information would be of use to applications leveraging the
Accessibility API, so there is no way to currently do it with the API
itself. Anyway, I have put in a subsequent feature request to Apple to
provide this information via the API. You might want to do the same to help
encourage Apple in augmenting the API.
