Let me correct my previous email:

In theory, you shouldn't have to subclass NSApp - because it should delegate stuff like hit testing and AXFocusedUIElement to the appropriate window.

In practice, it looks like you may have to override NSApp so your can override AXFocusedUIElement - I think your window's override of that attribute will be circumvented. This is a bug - I'll file it.

On closer examination, it looks like NSApp _is_ doing the right thing.

So, you shouldn't have to subclass NSApp. If your window overrides accessibilityFocusedUIElement that should control what the app returns for its AXFocusedUIElement attribute (when that window has focus).

There could be other problems that will force you to subclass NSApp, but I can't think of one - yet.
